Paperless?
By Mitch Berg
Eric Black reports on the Project for Excellence in Journalism report on the State of the News Media.
It’s an ugly report – you can read the details at MinnPost. Black’s conclusion:
I heard PEJ chief Tom Rosenstiel (disclosure: Tom and I went to college together less than one century ago; he’s a nice guy) on the radio today say that he doesn’t believe the day when a major American city will have no newspaper is imminent. I agree with that (although what’s happening in Detroit, where you can only get home delivery three days a week is frightening). The papers that have been folding are in two-newspaper towns.
So far.
Again, read the whole article.
On a quasi-unrelated note, I noticed that I haven’t gone to the Strib for blog fodder in quite some time now…
