      I agree. Unfortunatley, too many dinosaurs still exist in this industry and many of them are still the ones that make the decisions. Aug 08 07:28 AM
    • Bad Week (and Decade) for Newspapers [view article]
      Good piece, no sugarcoating.

      "The newspaper industry is notorious for copying each others’ design, circulation and advertising tips..." seems to be the current strategy for "escaping the complacency of the past four decades." The bad thing is, they don't have anybody to copy.       Jul 29 08:20 AM

      Written like a true "suit". The only thing newspapers have done is shift their resources to advertising. Now more than ever, you have to go through a maze of ads just to find a few lines of actual content. Put a fork in them, they've simply become spammers in print. Jul 21 08:13 AM

      One look at the salaries of the "higher ups" easily explains why these greedy corporations are in trouble. That and the fact that newspapers have completely forgotten the reason they exist ...well, most news media for that matter.

      Free press? LOL!!! We risk losing that little piece in the Bill of Rights all because these idiots are more concerned about not offending their advertisers than making people aware of what's really going on. They've sold their soul for increased revenues.

      Now that they've lost the readers' trust, Gannett and the rest can put a fork in it, too little, too late!

    • Newspapers: Hitting The Coffin Nail on the Head [view article]
      You "hit the nail on the head"! What's even worse, anybody that would have looked around instead of keeping their head down while genuflecting to the Advertising department could have easily seen the changes taking place.

      I used to work on the production management side of newspapers and saw the train coming years ago. I was recently bought out/laid off/let go by Gannett but now I can rely on the internet skills I picked up, on my own, while being bullied into working with nothing and continually being told to give up more, and more, and more...

      To borrow a quote from Tony Romo, "I'm sorry I'm not sorry".       Dec 20 10:30 AM
