How News Happens--Still - Pew Research Center - 1 views

  • Among the six major news threads studied in depth -- which included stories about budgets, crime, a plan involving transit buses, and the sale of a local theater -- fully 83% of stories were essentially repetitive, conveying no new information. Of the 17% that did contain new information, nearly all came from traditional media either in their legacy platforms or in new digital ones.

  • This year's technology is Internet video, which protesters have leveraged to self-report their protests. The Drudge Report had at least four links to such videos yesterday, and Instapundit, which has reported on continuing "tea parties" since they started, has more.

Home | Investigative Reporting Workshop - 0 views

  •  
    The Investigative Reporting Workshop, a project of the School of Communication at American University, addresses this fundamental issue for democracy in two important ways: * By conducting significant investigative journalism projects on a national and international scale. * By researching and experimenting with new models for creating and delivering investigative projects. The Workshop was formally approved by the university in the Spring of 2008 and began publishing original projects in the Spring of 2009.

John Paton on newspapers' future « BuzzMachine - 1 views

  • We outsourced all printing, distribution and pre-press ad make up and page make up. We plowed a big part of the savings into expanding our digital resource
  • The second decsion was we would let the outside world in. We would share our content for free and we would play with anyone who wanted to play with us – mainstream media or bloggers.
  • The third decision was that we would put in place a very strict protocol that follows the new news ecology of news creation and consumption.
  • ...9 more annotations...
  • The result was in less than two years we went from 9 products on two platforms (print and crappy publications sites full of shovelware) to nearly 100 products on 7 platforms – with about 45% less costs.
  • establish community E-Journalism labs in our communities where we have dailies.
  • expand relationships
  • community crowd-sourcing for assignments.
  • tackle the two-thirds infrastructure cost bucket.
  • The focus will become very local with national and international news procured from the very best sources.
  • At impreMedia we proved legacy media can be changed.
  • The E-Community Journalism labs will strike content and sales relationships with community members. We will faciliate cross-publishing with some, ditto sales. Sales training will be important.
  • I believe it is important we use the power of our traffic to strike ad relationships with local merchants.

Rusbridger v. walls « BuzzMachine - 3 views

  • Charging, Rusbridger says, “removes you from the way people the world over now connect with each other. You cannot control distribution or create scarcity without becoming isolated from this new networked world.”

The danger of the wall « BuzzMachine - 1 views

  • charging brings many costs: • It creates the expense of marketing (when, online, your audience will market you for free, if you deserve it). • It reduces audience. • It reduces advertising revenue. • It reduces links and clicks, which reduces Googlejuice, which reduces discovery, which limits growth.
  • But more than any of this, pay walls curtail a news organization’s relationship with its public, with its customers. On the internet, it’s in those relationships where value lies.
  • So media companies are becoming in part, retailers. Does it make sense to put a toll booth at the door to your store to keep people out?
