This document provides an analysis of the changing media landscape from 2010 conducted by the Vocus Media Research Team. It summarizes the state of newspapers, magazines, television, and radio in 2009. For newspapers, nearly 300 folded that year, with weekly newspapers making up the majority. Advertising revenue declined significantly for magazines as well, resulting in over 1,100 closures. Both newspapers and magazines increased their move to online platforms and non-profit models. The radio and television industries also faced job losses and station closures as the economic recession took its toll across all traditional media sectors. The report examines trends that will likely continue into 2010 and beyond.
The document provides an overview of the state of various media industries in 2010 and expectations for 2011 based on analysis from the Vocus Media Research Group. In 2010, the mass closures and layoffs in the media began to slow down as the industries stabilized, though traditional media continued shifting to new digital models. Newspapers saw about half as many closures as 2009, while magazines saw slightly more launches than closures. Both industries continued experimenting with new digital platforms and paywalls. The success of new initiatives like the Daily and digital transformations will influence the future of these industries in 2011 and beyond.
Mock Boston Globe press release for Crisis Comm. Management Course Adam P. Coulter
This is a Boston Globe press release I crafted for my Crisis Communications Management grad. course. For assignment, we were acting as the paper's management (NYT & Globe), and were tasked with responding to the fall 2009 crisis of a massive loss of revenue and the possible sale of the venerable Boston institution. Besides an analytical paper offering suggestions and implemented strategies for the Globe and a press conference w/ talking points, I wrote this release.
The document discusses the decline of newspapers due to falling readership and circulation numbers as readers increasingly get their news from online sources. It provides statistics showing drops in newspaper penetration rates and circulation over time as the population has grown. While some smaller community newspapers are doing better relatively, most newspapers are struggling financially and have implemented layoffs and pay cuts as advertising revenues decline sharply. The future of the newspaper industry is unclear as it works to adapt to the digital age.
This document discusses the challenges facing journalism in the digital age. It notes that many newspapers have closed or cut staff since the early 2000s as circulation has declined sharply. The role of journalists is also changing as skills like video, audio, photography, and social media are increasingly important. New business models are being explored but none have fully replaced lost print revenue yet. The future of journalism appears to be focused on mobile platforms, though the industry still needs to understand audience behavior and find financial models that work well for mobile news.
How Newspaper Companies Are Selling and Distributing Digital Content -- A Pro...Dilyan Damyanov
Newspapers are facing a tough time to maintain the viability of a dual business model that has proven lucrative in the past but is beginning to fail as publications move online. New ways to monetise content are being sought. A review of the literature on content monetisation revealed a gap with regard to the different content monetisation types. In particular, work in the area seemed to look at the issue in too broad terms and there was a lack of narrow-focussed exploration of the various types of content sale/distribution. This research looked at two case studies of daily newspapers in South Africa and in the UK and tried to identify the types and propose a typology of content sale/distribution. Distribution was regarded as an alternative to sale on the assumption that if content can be delivered to a client, it can be monetised. Forty three-dimensional types of content sale/distribution were identified. The three dimensions of each type include the channel which is used to deliver the content, the sort of customer that receives the content (retail or wholesale) and the bundling options (bundled vs unbundled). The types were analysed and their viability was weighed. As many as 17 out of the 40 types were found to be not viable. For the remaining 23, there were various options to monetise content, including direct sales revenue and indirect advertising revenue; and some types of content distribution had the possibility to use content for purely promotional purposes. Recommendations were made as to how further research could build on the results presented in this dissertation and expand and improve the proposed typology.
This document discusses the challenges facing journalism in the digital age. It notes that many newspapers have closed or cut staff since the rise of the internet. Journalists now need skills in writing, editing, video, audio, photography, and using social media. They may also engage with citizen journalism and work cooperatively. The document explores new business models and innovative projects newspapers are pursuing. It suggests mobile platforms hold promise for news organizations if they can understand audience behavior and develop new revenue models for this environment.
This document provides an introduction and background for a dissertation exploring how independent ("indie") print magazine publishers have formed the "post-digital indie magazine" through non-traditional routes to traditional publishing. It discusses how print magazines have struggled in recent years due to declining readership and profits. However, it also notes that reports of print's death are exaggerated and that print still has value for many readers. The document argues indie publishers are progressive in creating unique publishing experiences for niche audiences through innovative and digital processes. The dissertation aims to understand why indie publishers continue pursuing print and to re-examine print magazines in the current publishing context.

This document provides an introduction to the concept of participatory journalism. It discusses how journalism has evolved from a daily record controlled solely by journalists to a collaborative process where people both inside and outside of newsrooms contribute content. It focuses on how journalists at online newspapers are dealing with this transition and the challenges of managing vast amounts of user-generated content. The document chooses to examine online newspapers specifically because newspapers have a long history of adapting to technological changes and generally retain an authoritative role, while also being early innovators of participatory features on their websites.
The document discusses various local and national newspapers in London and Enfield, including their names, owners, costs, online availability, and circulation figures from 2007-2010. It also discusses factors that influence what makes a story newsworthy and how newspapers are struggling with declining circulation numbers due to increased online news and competition from other media.
This document discusses the rise of online news and its impact on traditional media like newspapers. It notes that younger generations now get their news primarily from digital sources online rather than print newspapers. This has contributed to a decline in newspaper readership and revenue. The document also discusses how new digital technologies like social media and microblogs have allowed news to spread faster, including during breaking news events. Overall, the document argues that online news will eventually replace traditional newspapers as the primary source of news for most people.
Here are some key points to consider in analysing this media text:
1. The text aims to meet audience expectations of entertainment and sensationalism typical of tabloid newspapers. Stories focus on celebrity gossip, sensational crimes and controversies rather than in-depth news.
2. Tabloid style uses eye-catching headlines, images and short snippets to grab attention. Stories are simplified with an informal tone. Celebrity gossip offers vicarious pleasure and distraction from readers' own lives. Sensational stories satisfy curiosity about crime and controversy.
3. As a commercial enterprise, the paper prioritises profit over impartial facts. Stories are selected based on likely popularity rather than importance. Advertising also influences content choices.

It then discusses factors that have contributed to declining newspaper circulations in recent years, such as the rise of online news and 24-hour news channels. It also notes that local newspapers are highly dependent on advertising revenue.

Redefining News: A Manifesto for Community-Centered JournalismDamian Radcliffe
This forward-thinking report makes the case for embracing a more inclusive, community-focused model of journalism, one that prioritizes listening to and collaborating with communities to produce relevant, equitable and impactful news and storytelling. The report features an actionable framework to put the principles of Community-Centered Journalism into practice and explains how this approach differs from traditional models of journalism, with potential benefits including rebuilding trust, tackling inequities, and fostering civic engagement.
Magazines have historically reflected trends in American culture and society. In the 1740s, magazines entered the American media landscape, competing with newspapers. Early magazines struggled without advertising revenue. Over time, magazines specialized their content to attract specific audiences and grew significantly after receiving discounted postal rates in 1879. In the 1890s, muckraking magazines like McClure's launched investigative journalism that helped spur political reforms. Later, magazines like The New Yorker and Time found success with different business models and targeted demographics. Today, magazines continue to adapt by offering digital editions alongside print to reach online audiences and advertisers.
The document discusses the future of newspapers in light of technological changes and the rise of digital media. It notes that newspaper circulation has been declining for decades as people get news online. It argues that newspapers must adapt to the internet and social media or they will become obsolete. This means embracing new reporting tools and formats to better engage audiences across different platforms. The key to newspapers' survival is evolving with digital and social media rather than sticking to traditional print formats and distribution.
The document summarizes an Economist report on the future of news media. It discusses six key trends: (1) Newspapers are declining in the West but growing in places like India; (2) News organizations are experimenting with new revenue models beyond advertising; (3) Social media has transformed news production and consumption; (4) Some question whether transparency organizations practice journalism or activism; (5) Transparency is replacing objectivity as the new standard for quality reporting; (6) News media is returning to a more conversational model as in pre-industrial times with the rise of social media. Successful organizations will embrace this new reality by prioritizing readers over advertisers and collaboration over barriers between producers and consumers.
The document discusses the past, present and future of print media such as newspapers and magazines. It describes the differences between broadsheet and tabloid newspapers, and how newspapers have struggled with declining circulation and revenue as well as increased competition from the internet. It also outlines the history and types of magazines, and how magazines have adapted over time to focus more on niche audiences and ideas rather than general readership. The principles of journalism are discussed, as well as how both newspapers and magazines have tried to stay relevant in the modern media landscape.

Opportunities and Dangers for the Traditional Mass Media in the Digital Age A...ijtsrd
Mass Media is an integral part of contemporary society. Traditional broadcast media such as Radio, Television, and Newspapers have emerged in the pre internet era. They are serving as the prime sources of news and entertainment for a long time. Conversely, the Digital Age is creating alternative sources by promoting internet based Digital Media or New Media, such as social media, online newspapers, websites, and the like. New Media is becoming more popular day by day and creating a threat to Traditional Mass Media. The internet is surpassing newspapers in popularity as a news platform. In many developed countries, the circulation of newspapers is decreasing even some prominent newspapers are discontinuing their printed editions. Traditional radio and television are also suffering losses due to Digital Media. However, the Digital Age is not only a danger for Traditional Mass Media but also an opportunity for them. Many newspapers have embraced digital transformation to reach worldwide and attract more readers than before. A similar evolution is also happening for traditional radio and television. Indeed, New Media is a reality of the Digital Age it indicates that the future of Mass Media is digital.

This document discusses the challenges facing the newspaper industry as readers increasingly get their news online rather than from print publications. It notes that newspaper circulation and advertising revenue have sharply declined as people get news digitally. While newspapers have tried strategies like consolidation, spinoffs of print divisions, and paywalls online, these have not reversed the downward trends. The document suggests that further consolidation may be needed to help newspapers gain scale and resources to successfully transition to digital-first business models.
The document discusses how The Guardian newspaper has adapted to challenges in the digital age. It notes that while The Guardian has a successful website with over 120 million monthly readers, its print revenues are declining significantly. The Guardian is relying on investments to remain operational as its print editions are no longer profitable. The document examines some of the strategies The Guardian has used to generate online revenue, such as subscriptions, donations, and sponsorships for events, while still maintaining its content as freely accessible without a paywall.
This chapter discusses the history and current state of the magazine industry. It begins with an overview of the origins of magazines in colonial America and their evolution throughout history. Key developments included the penny press era expanding audiences, improved printing enabling mass circulation, and specialization of content in the 20th century. Currently, the industry faces challenges from declining advertising revenue and competition from digital media. Publishers are adapting by strengthening their online presence and experimenting with digital formats and apps. The chapter also outlines the organizational structure of the magazine industry and how magazines are produced.
The document summarizes the growth of digital native news organizations and their editorial staffing. It finds that over 468 digital native outlets have produced almost 5,000 full-time editorial jobs, filling some gaps left by job losses in legacy print and broadcast news. While this has not fully compensated for losses elsewhere, it represents a significant shift in journalism resources to new digital platforms. Questions remain about developing sustainable business models, but many see this rise of digital newsrooms as an important transformation in the media landscape.
New media has influenced the structure of glossy magazines. Readers now share interests on social media instead of magazines. To reconnect with readers, magazines must use social media like Facebook. A proposal recommends Sophie Spindler's company create a Facebook page to engage readers through polls, videos, gifts and events to understand reader interests and promote magazines. Metrics will show engagement and demographics reached. Using social media can help magazines sell more issues and attract advertisers.
This document provides an overview of a proposal presented to Sophie Spindler's creative direction company about the future of the glossy magazine industry. It discusses how new media has influenced the traditional format of glossy magazines in several ways: 1) The economic crisis has led to declines in advertising pages and smaller magazine sizes; 2) Readers are unsatisfied with magazines' unchanged content and are turning to blogs and social media for more realistic discussions; 3) New media technologies allow for two-way communication and user-generated content rather than the one-way format of traditional magazines. The proposal aims to answer how new media has reinvented the structure of glossy magazines and provides a strategy using social media like Facebook to reconnect with
The document outlines the typical sequence of events in a criminal prosecution, including arrest, arraignment, preliminary hearing, grand jury hearing, plea bargain or trial, sentencing, and appeals. It notes that journalism students are allowed to observe courtroom proceedings to help understand how the justice system works in practice.
This document discusses resources for journalism students covering the Pima County Superior Court. It provides an overview of the court's relationship to the state court system and other courts. It also lists contacts in the court administration who can assist students, highlights some useful court websites and calendar feeds, and provides a criminal case flowchart and descriptions of areas in the courthouse like initial appearance courtrooms and the jury assembly room.

The document discusses the potential for Facebook to be used for serving legal documents and process. It notes that materials from social media profiles are already being used as evidence in US courts. The article outlines how an Australian judge allowed service of documents via Facebook message. However, it also raises privacy concerns, particularly about sensitive documents like divorce papers being posted publicly. The comments debate whether social media could securely facilitate document exchange between lawyers as an alternative to physical paperwork.
The document provides step-by-step instructions for how to use Twitter. It explains how to create an account, post tweets, follow other users, customize your profile, search for topics, and post updates from mobile devices. The summary concludes by noting that President Obama announced his vice presidential pick simultaneously on Twitter and other platforms.
Facebook is a social networking website launched in 2004. It allows users to create profiles, add other users as friends, exchange messages, and receive updates about others. Originally limited to Harvard students, it expanded to other colleges and universities before opening to high school and then all users aged 13 and older. It has over 500 million active users and is one of the most visited websites worldwide.
The report summarizes the findings of a year-long study on how new media technologies are impacting courts. It found that over 1/3 of judge respondents use social media like Facebook, while under 10% of courts use social media for outreach. The report examines the challenges new media poses for court proceedings, ethics, and public trust in courts. It identifies 7 categories of technologies, such as social media, smartphones, and wikis, and provides examples of court use.

The changing newsroom what is being gained and what is being lost in america...David Ricker
This document summarizes the findings of a study examining changes in American daily newspapers between 2005-2008. It finds that most newspapers have reduced staffing and content due to financial pressures, with larger papers facing deeper cuts. Specifically, it notes that foreign, national, and business news coverage is declining the most, with over half of papers cutting space for these topics. The changing newsrooms now have younger, more tech-savvy staff but less institutional knowledge. While newspapers are expanding online, editors are uncertain about monetizing websites and balancing speed/interactivity with journalistic standards. Overall, the document captures an industry in turmoil, narrowing its scope amid rapid technological changes.
This document summarizes a report about Americans' use of government websites and online services. Some key findings include:
- 82% of internet users looked for information or completed a transaction on a government website in the past year. Common activities included looking up policies, services, downloading forms, and renewing licenses.
- 40% of online adults accessed government data and information online, such as how stimulus money was spent or the text of legislation.
- 31% of online adults get government information through social media platforms like blogs, social networks, email and videos.
- 23% of internet users participate in online debates about government policies.
So in summary, the document finds that Americans increasingly use government

1) News-oriented blogs share similarities with mainstream media in that they often link to legacy outlets and focus on politics, government, and foreign events. However, blogs tend to focus more on issues related to personal rights and cultural norms.
2) While blogs and mainstream media sometimes cover the same top stories, this only occurs in about 1/3 of weeks. Blogs also give more attention to science, technology, and environmental stories than traditional media.
3) Blogs provide a platform for sharing personal connections to news events and divisive opinions. Discussions on political issues tend to involve both conservative and liberal viewpoints.
This document discusses the potential effects that crime drama TV shows like CSI have on real-world criminal investigations and court cases. It defines the "CSI effect" as jurors having unrealistic expectations about the type and amount of forensic evidence that should be available. The document discusses how police, attorneys, forensic labs, and jurors may be affected, noting trends like jurors demanding more DNA evidence than is realistic. While CSI shows increase interest in forensics careers, they also portray an inaccurate picture of how long evidence examination takes and what technology and resources actual crime labs have.

their final goodbyes. Approximately 293 papers folded and 45 launched – nine of those being online or
Webfirst. Meanwhile, major newspapers, including the Wall Street Journal, USA Today, New York
Times, Los Angeles Times, Washington Post, Chicago Tribune, and Houston Chronicle, had a combined
number of approximately 421 layoffs and buyouts in the newsroom alone.

Will the gutting continue? Coates said he doesn’t think papers can afford to. “I think that the major
newspapers have cut as much as they can cut and they need to figure out what to do with what they
have.” As it is, many journalists are performing dual roles, splitting up the duties of a person who was
laid off and adding extra duties to remaining staff. And while jobs on the print side will continue to be
low in 2010, editorial job openings on the digital side may become more common.
Looking ahead to 2010, we will probably see large papers continue to form content sharing
partnerships like the Dallas Morning News and Fort Worth StarTelegram, which began sharing sports
coverage at the onset of 2009, and the Tulsa World and The Oklahoman, which share selected stories
and news content across both print and online mediums. The Washington Post and Baltimore Sun also
formed a similar agreement in late 2008/early 2009 when they agreed to share suburban coverage.
While combining resources cuts costs for an ailing industry, there is a breakdown in competition.
Propublica, Chicago News Coop, Voice of San Diego, Voice of the OC, and the Seattle PostGlobe are
just a few examples of the nonprofit, investigative journalism sector of online journalism gaining
popularity. In December, the Illinois Statehouse News launched, and in early 2010, another nonprofit
called Bay Area News Project is slated to debut.
Paywalls will continue to dominate headlines and more newspapers will join that model, but while the
controversy among analysts and industry heads continues to be split down the middle, Coates said he
doesn’t think it will stick, at least not for general news outlets, “because people are used to getting
things for free.” For instance, Newsday went behind a paywall in October and by November had seen a

drop in unique users to 1.7 million from 2.2 million. Meanwhile, niche products utilizing paywalls may
have a chance since their content is more audiencetargeted.

Magazines
A decade ago, journalism was a profession where media professionals could make a living. Today, it’s
an unstable environment where more than 600 reporters from the magazine industry alone can find
themselves jobless in a matter of a year. Just between Newsweek and Bloomberg’s BusinessWeek,
hundreds were laid off in 2009. Meanwhile, approximately 1,126 magazines folded and publishers took
a hard look at the figures, eliminating magazines that just weren’t making the grade. Among those to
go were Condé Nast’s Gourmet, Cookie, Elegant Bride, Modern Bride and Domino. One magazine
tragically slated for closure was the illustrious Editor & Publisher, which ceased to be with the close of 2009. Only two
weeks later, it was brought back from the abyss when Californiabased Duncan McIntosh Co. Inc. purchased the
publication from Nielsen Business Media. As the economy recovers, Rebecca Bredholt, managing editor of
magazine content at Vocus Media Research Group said she doesn’t believe the magazine industry will
do the same. “The current recession was like a naturally occurring brush fire. It got rid of dead wood.
The green shoots we’ll see will be from online trade and association publications.”
Ad revenue bled while publishers selling titles became a common theme. The Washington Post
Company recently announced that it would sell Budget Travel magazine, while Nielsen’s Business
Media sold off Adweek, Backstage, Billboard, Brandweek, The Hollywood Reporter, and Mediaweek to
e5 Global Media, a company formed by Pluribus Capital Management LLC and Guggenheim Partners.
BusinessWeek became Bloomberg’s BusinessWeek as it underwent new ownership. Meanwhile,
Playboy joined the chopping block but was saved from purchase when the deal between the magazine
and Iconix Brand Group Inc. fell through.

How Business Models Changed in 2009
As the media struggled to survive during a tumultuous year, business models were experimented with
and new marketing endeavors were undertaken.
In print, industry heads and analysts debated over the effectiveness of paywalls, while a slew of e
readers geared at books, newspapers and magazines were set to release in 2010. In the case of
magazines, almost all the top publishers are launching an electronic tablet meant for reading their
content – Time Inc., Hearst and Meredith included. In addition, some publishers have advertised
phone applications for about $2.00 a piece. “I think each company needs to really brand themselves
as a content company – then go back and realize the best medium through which to distribute their
content,” Bredholt said. “I also think there’s a bit of a citycentric thinking going on here. Not
everyone lives in Manhattan and prefers digital handheld devices over print – especially when it
comes to longform editorial.”
InStyle and Esquire magazine delved into “augmented reality” as a marketing gimmick. If you hold the
magazine cover to your computer’s Web camera, the computer screen will read the bar code and
launch a flashy video clip. Some magazines even have a bar code on advertisements that allows you
to order it instantly just by taking a picture with your camera. “Anything that takes their print product
and brings an ‘immediacy’ factor to it has been very popular in 2009. Other than receiving a lot of
press, there’s no proof this has increased subscriptions or newsstand sales,” Bredholt said.
In a drastic departure from the traditional newspaper business model, the Dallas Morning News
announced in December that section editors would start reporting to the paper’s sales managers. In
addition, newspapers continued to outsource staff, including copy editors, to cut costs. The nonprofit,
online news source rose in popularity, based on the Voice of San Diego model, which was a pioneer
when it launched back in 2005. Since then we have seen the rise of MinnPost, ProPublica, Investigative
Voice and the Seattle PostGlobe, as well as the Texas Tribune, which launched in November and
