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.
