Why the media is just not that into you

No comment.  None needed:

Kudos to Wondergem PR and West Michigan PRSA for putting this together.  Moreso to Grand Rapids media for being candid on camera.

RT @techdirt: The cognitive mismatch between newspaper execs and newspaper readers

It's frightening to think that editors and publishers actually think that readers would switch to dead trees if yourfavoritenewspaper.com suddenly vanished, or at least started charging for content.  API's numbers unremarkably show otherwise:

With so much alt media in the wild, I can only chalk this up to the death throes of the old guard facing the new.

Print journalism isn't a complete goner--yet.  Nor are micropayments a messiah.  Still, it's hard to fathom why the gray beards can't get with the times.  They've had well over a decade to refigure revenue.  The Journal never once complained.  Politico thrived.  I'll go so far as to credit Arianna Huffington, and I can't stand Arianna Huffington.

Look, I don't care how I get my news.  Just give it to me good and plenty.  I'd even pay for microfiche.
