While the San Diego News Network (Chris Jennewein's new hangout) is hardly a commercial threat yet in San Diego, the cratering of the Union-Tribune -- a one-time employer of 1422 people that will soon be paying only 572 -- leads to this question, in San Diego and elsewhere: How big a ...
On the other hand, Google is particular has become the gateway of our times. It is the number one sender of traffic to news sites -- 25-35% as a rule. In saying that news companies are free to tell Google not to index them, and that Google will be glad to comply, you can practically hear the ...

So what do we make of the first half of 2008 in DailyLand? Bad and getting worse. I’ve listened to the CEO webcasts — so you don’t have to! — and must say that there were a couple of eerie echoes of my own suggested remarks, offered a couple of weeks ago ("Candidly, ...
Last week’s Gannett’s 2Q report was an auspicious start, with the New York Times due Wednesday and McClatchy Thursday. Start with the fact that Gannett, as both the world’s and US’s largest news company, commands about one of twenty dollars worldwide in the news trade. Add to that, the ...
