Newspaper Legal Notices?

Why do newspapers still run legal notices?
Last time I checked, we're still in the 21st century, but for some reason just about every newspaper in the country still has a section for Legal Notices. Why the heck don't they just use the Internet for things like that?
Before the Internet, newspapers were an effective way to make legal notices available to anyone who was interested, but there's absolutely no reason for them to continue to be printed today. Just about everyone today has access to the Internet, so it's about time we change local laws that require public notice, so they no longer require newspaper ads.
I think the only reason this hasn't already happened is because newspapers get paid for running the ads. That's pretty stupid
