NEWSPAPER AD REVENUE PLUNGES, SPREADING FEAR IN INDUSTRY... DEVELOPING...

[GOPGuide]

I want Pinches' NYSlimes to go down more than any other paper.

Who agrees with me?

[exile]

In the words of Nelson from The Simpsons

Haa Haa!

[yldstrk]

Newspapers lost it when they lost their objectivity.....boo hoo.

[Keith in Iowa]

>>>I want Pinches’ NYSlimes to go down more than any other paper.

That would be a most pleasurable event to witness.

[Man50D]

Who agrees with me?

I wouldn't mind The Hartford Courant going down the tubes even if it is the longest continually published newspaper in America.

[CindyDawg]

If they go belly up maybe FR can afford to buy one.

[Prole]

I am with you!

All these horrendous media companies need to DIE, and their employees need to be thrown out.

Rotten companies and rotten "reporters" need to go!!!!

[MassRepublicanFlyersFan]

[MovementConservative]

The Slimes is up there on the most hated list. I also would like to see the commies at the Ass. Press go under. A bunch of leftist activists posing as reporters. If the newspapers stop printing and go digital, hopefully the AP will go under as well.

By the time you get your daily newspaper, it’s already old news. The internet, devices like the iPhone and the younger generation will be the demise of the traditional newspaper. Good riddance!

[SmithL]

Now, there’s a surprise.

[tips up]

I agree, but unfortunately it will probably one of the last to go down.

[abb]

Pinging the Dinosaur Media DeathWatch™ ping list

[Anti-Bubba182]

Me!

[freekitty]

Me.

[bert]

This is the reason for the AP to do backflips for revenue by charging for online useage.

The AP is dying...... It has no revenue except from dying newspaper members.

[ricks_place]

More losses in circulation and advertising? Fire more of the IT nerds!

[moose2004]

I think the only paper I know that is increasing it’s circulation and ad revenue is the “New York Post,” which happens to have a conservative slant. Telling isn’t it.

That's what [lawyers at] AP don't understand. They can't intimidate by "new guidelines" or sue their way out of this "brave new world" of instant communications. Instead of threats which only speed up their demise, they should be figuring out how to improve the "service"... but that will only come if they start to understand who their customers and consumers (not members or affiliates or distributors) of "news" are and what they are interested in.

[Bertha Fanation]

But where will all the young leftists at J school go? They want so much to make a difference.

[Drango]

The fourth estate is a fifth column.

Where will FR get its material?

[STONEWALLS]

“But where will all the young leftists at J school go? They want so much to make a difference.”
....I expect they’ll just walk across campus and enroll in Law school...I remember when there was a time when it wasn’t the way it is now with news papers....it was the Washington Post during Vietnam that pioneered the concept of America as the bad guy...it’s just grown from there...the Post may hold on the longest....they’ve gone into other things like Kaplan tutoring for instance.

How am I going to wrap my china in crumpled iPhones for moving?

[TASMANIANRED]

The sky is falling, the sky is falling .
Heh,heh,heh...

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Creative destruction. There is nothing they can do about it except die. Seen any “Town Criers” around? Nah, didn’t think so.

[abb]

And remember all those quill pin manufacturers that Johann Gutenberg put out of business...

Alvin Toffler warned about this way back in 1979 when he wrote The Third Wave. Read the chapter "De-Massifying the Media" and you know why the MSM ignored that warning to their peril.

payback for Duranty is a bitch

Fear and widespread panic among the newsies. Forced to take up honest work

[Parley Baer]

Excellent Sunday news. Hopefully the only thing of the nyt that wil be of any value will be the brick and mortar. Maybe that has been mortgaged to. Hahaha.

[peggybac]

I agree with you but Number 1 on my list is the KC Red Star. They just had a recent layoff of several employees - I pray it continues.

[Loyal Buckeye]

[VRWC For Truth]

The cheaper alternative.

[Biggirl]

...Since it is owned by the Chicago Tribune.

I can guarantee it’s not your regular Joe Blows banking BHO.
I want to know where the money is coming from. We know how unethical they are.

[rod1]

It telling when you realize that in 2008, Pravda provides more accurate reporting of the news that the NY Times.

[TribalPrincess2U]

Drudge only spreads the news. He doesn’t invent it.

[BluH2o]

They want so much to make a difference.

They so want to change the world ...

[varon]

Rotten companies and rotten "reporters" need to go!!!!

It would be heartening to see as much enthusiasm on FR for "rotten Administration, Senators and Congressmen need to go"!

[Clay Moore]

[BallyBill]

I hear the Buggy Whip Factory is hiring.

[coldoc]

I wonder how much oil and fresh water it takes to make all that news print paper?

[TribalPrincess2U]

You have to be kidding!

[mimaw]

I agree with you followed by the likes of the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
