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.

>>>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!!!!

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.

Me!

[freekitty]

Me.

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.

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