Media: The rebirth of news | The Economist
And already, there are signs that it will (see article). New sources of news are proliferating online. Many, it is true, are unreliable. Most are badly funded. Some are the rantings of deranged extremists. But some—like Muckety, an American site which enriches news stories with interactive maps of the protagonists’ networks of influence, and NightJack, the revealing and depressing blog of an anonymous British policeman, which won the Orwell prize last month—enhance society’s understanding of itself, and cou...

The news business: Tossed by a gale | The Economist
Indeed it is. According to the American Society of News Editors, employment in the country’s newsrooms has fallen by 15% in the past two years. Paul Zwillenberg of OC&C, a firm of consultants, reckons that almost 70 British local newspapers have shut since the beginning of 2008. The Independent and the London Evening Standard depend on the largesse of foreign investors. The strain is not confined to English-speaking countries: French newspapers have avoided the same fate only by securing an increase in ... (more)

Let's not stop the presses
Don't give up on newspapers just yet. Their transition from ink on paper to publishing online has begun to produce some interesting hybrids. Out of all this experimentation, natural selection could produce some winners. We should care because newspaper journalism has been a major factor in keeping our politicians honest and our democracy working. The Internet is great at moving information cheaply and swiftly, but we still need to figure out how to pay someone who is trusted and smart to originate it. In ... (more)

Plans for a Paid Online Media Service
Their company, Journalism Online L.L.C., aims to supply publishers with ready-made tools to charge Internet fees, an idea that has gained currency as advertising revenue plummets, but whose prospects of success are doubted by many media analysts. The company, which says it may have a product ready by the fall, says the advantages are that publishers would not have to develop their own systems and readers could use a single system for many different publications. The founders and investors are Steven Brill, ... (more)

Broadcast television is declining at an accelerating rate
“IT’S amazing how little has changed around here,” says a character in the final episode of “E.R.”, which aired in America on April 2nd.
