The author concludes that newspapers are making a bad decision by cutting back on book reviews. The move will decrease readership by annoying regular readers while appealing to an audience who are more likely to watch TV than read newspapers.

The conclusion is about whether newspapers’ decision to cut back on book reviews is wise: “Such a move is ill-advised.”

This best paraphrases the conclusion, which is that the move to replace book reviews with other features is ill-advised. Another way to state that the move is ill-advised is that newspapers shouldn't be replacing book reviews with other features.

This is context about what newspapers have done. The author's conclusion expresses her opinion on whether what newspapers have done is a good idea.

The author's conclusion isn't about focus group research. Newspapers have cut back on book reviews in favor of features that are allegedly more interesting, according to focus group research. But the author's conclusion is that this move isn't a good idea.

This is support for the conclusion. The move to cut back on book reviews was ill-advised because it will decrease rather than increase readership.

This supports the conclusion that the move to cut back on book reviews was ill-advised. By annoying loyal readers and catering to casual ones who are more likely to watch TV, newspapers decrease their readership. This is why the author believes cutting back on book reviews was ill-advised.
