Why do you think that? Statistical natural language processing has been very successful, both for recognition and translation of text, and for speech recognition.
Statistical natural language processing yes, but that's not the same thing as text compression (again, there is a mathematical sense in which one could consider them related in principle, but doing text compression and doing natural language processing were still separate activities last I heard).
