It's a big bet. The New York Times, which has been thrashing about every possible kind of business model in the last six months, is making the bet on metering, meaning readers will get some number of free articles per month, then be told to pay up to get more. Nine quick questions as we... ...
How does the tablet blur own notion of what's a book, what's a magazine and what's a newspaper? The web atomized everything, and the tablet is one form of reordering. Each device though -- a Sony Reader, a Kindle, a Nook, a JooJoo, an Adam, an Ultra, whatever -- will have a singular interface, ...
Many of us shared the three-minute Sports Illustrated tablet video over the last week, and now watched at least a quarter million times. It was an ah-ha moment, amid the rat-a-tat-tat of daily digital news, moves and announcements. We could see a different kind of news reading future, one that ...

If you've actually looked at your cable bill lately, you know it's undecipherable. Cablevision -- owner of Newsday -- could peg any amount it wanted to Newsday value, call it an information access charge or whatever, and attribute the money to ..... Newsday. Sound familiar, maybe a bit like, ...
8) Will the Post-Intelligencer Flip the Switch in Seattle? You know, go online-only. (Is online the onliest medium?) With Hearst's Ken Riddick and the PI's Michelle Nicolosi working through the what-ifs, we may have a new, great test to watch. We’d be able to compare the online PI to the ...
What may appear to be a sprint to fix (where is SNL's Keenan Thompson's Mr. Fix-It when the news industry so badly needs his exhortation?) the press is really much more a marathon. And many of us feel like we've been running it for a long time already.
