The 100-product-a-year model is a much-needed growth model. We can see how it fits nicely with all-access subscriptions, and together we have two interconnected Lego blocks of a new sustainable news model. We have two essential parts of a crossover model ("The Newsonomics of Crossover") that ...
Why do it? Why trade in the sleepiness of California's capital city (Sacramento is McClatchy's headquarters) for the bright lights of Broadway, a long walk from AP's NYC offices?
