How to Save Newspapers and Journalism ¦ Barry Ritholtz [del.icio.us]
2009-09-12 10:34:00 We know that the annual subscription model won?t work outside of finance. And that there will be numerous papers that won?t survive, either on or off line. Free content is going to continue to siphon off readers and ad dollars, albeit modestly. ?Revenue from newspaper classified ads is off nearly 50 percent in the past decade, a drop that comes to almost $10 billion. Only a fraction of this loss is because of Newmark?s company, but as the largest online classified site, craigslist is easy to blame,? says Wired. Total revenue (from all sources) fall last year was $7.5 billion. And this means that total (free) reader numbers will be going down in the future; Papers need to do the math to ensure the loss of advertising revenue from non-paying readers is offset by subscriber revenue.

"Please treat your family to a meal and we’ll get through this together." According to Stephen D.
