Vin Crosbie has a lengthy and thoughtful post, nay essay, on why the US newspaper industry is in dire straits in two parts, see Part 1 and Part 2. Vin's prediction is this: More than half of the 1,439 daily newspapers in the United States won't exist in print, e-paper, or Web site formats by ...Shared by Carlos (23) Kevin Marks (15)
- Kevin Marks said: Great analysis in here about the nature of publics, and newspapers old model:they came to believe that producing a common edition for everyone is their raison d'être, forgetting it arose as a limitation of their technology. Fitting psychologist Abraham Maslow's statement that "If the only tool you have is a hammer, you tend to see every problem as a nail," the editorial production limitation of Gutenberg's technology has led most newspaper editors to believe that they set the 'common agenda' for their community and likewise that their community's readership is somehow homogenous because it reads the same newspaper edition on any given day.

"Legacy media companies haven't taken advantage of the disruptive economics of digital technologies. I see a lot of newspaper companies getting into video, but instead of using low-cost digital technologies, they are chasing television and buying high-cost broadcast technology. Smart companies are leveraging open-source technologies, but many companies suffer from 'not made here' syndrome, delivering projects over-budget and behind schedule."Contribute comment -
