$128 million is a significant number – but it may be just a drop in the bucket of what’s to come. Sources tell me that major foundations – some that have previously considered “news and information” to be fairly far afield from their philanthropic mandates – are talking about the large sums of ...
It's one of many non-newspaper metrics that seem alien to newspaper publishers. In fact, though, some measure of likeability, trustworthiness or other relationship factors may soon prove to be crucial to their future prospects
I see a theme here. No, of course, Journalism Online hasn't brought in David Boies with the notion of litigating. After all, it's a company that is in the talking stages, first with publishers, but presumably soon with search aggregators. You don't even have to mention "anti-trust" to Eric ...
The two sites still appear fairly close in most metrics, with the major disagreement coming on the basis of what the Times considers it stronger "local" penetration. The impact on advertisers is, of course, another story again, as the dirty, little secret of many "local" news websites -- for ...
Let's figure there are 44,000 journalists left in US newsrooms, an up-to-date tally hard to keep up with. So, if the industry magically flipped that switch tomorrow, we've got an estimate of how many online-only published could pay: 6600 journalists, and that's at the optimistic 15% number. Of ...

Open your windows, and you can almost hear a muted "Yahoo!," wafting out of the windows of many newspaper buildings across the land this week. "Yahoo!," as in the long-awaited launch of the ready-for-newspaper-integration ad platform has begun. Though I have doubts that this ...
Today’s announcement that Centro is taking over the Real Cities Network isn’t really an exclamation point. It’s more like a period, marking movement between eras. Centro has brought local news websites significantly more revenue over the past several years. Real Cities, on the ...
As Yahoo burns, the newspaper industry watches, hoping it won’t get singed. The Google/Yahoo search ad agreement has drawn lots of comments over the past couple of weeks, but its impact on newspaper consortium members has gotten little attention. The deal itself, if implemented, ...
