Tango thought it would survive on relationships, but as everybody knows, love stinks and hook-ups don't last. Pffttt -- Tango moved online only.<br /><br />Pink, a women's career leadership and busiess title, was not going to be long for this world, despite the noble mission of "equity and opportunity." Waltzing with Tango now in the digital world after five years in print, there is now one less title in nail salons across this great country of ours.

Ma...Photojournalism’s Coming Crisis<br />By paulgillin <br /><br />Mark Glaser takes a look at Demotix, the citizen photo agency we told you about in April. Demotix is the second notable startup to take a crack at monetizing citizen photojournalism, following on the heels of Scoopt, a site that brokered the work of amateur journalists to major media organizations and split the revenue with the photographers. Scoopt was acquired by Getty Images and shut down early this year.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-34971308071521542722009-08-04T15:42:38.762-07:002009-08-04T15:42:38.762-07:00Pondering the new order in local media. Shrinking ...Pondering the new order in local media. Shrinking newspaper readership has huge implications<br />By Paul Benjou (Media Life Magazine)[PAUL JUST NOW FIGURED THIS OUT? JUST THINK, IN TEN YEARS PAUL WILL UNDERSTAND SOCIALISM TOO]<br /><br />The decline of the American newspaper as it's playing out in large and medium-size cities across America is being told as two stories. <br /><br />One is a numbers story: shrinking advertising and falling readership. The other is a human story: the personal fallout as more and more journalists and others find themselves out of work.<br /><br />But there is a third story, and in some ways it's a bigger story, that's not being written, perhaps because we've yet to feel its full impact.<br /><br />That story is of the impact of those declining circulations. The implications are enormous for advertisers, retail advertisers in particular, for newspapers and for other local media. In some ways it has deeper implications than anything going on in national media.<br /><br />Consider: If the local paper once had a circulation of 150,000 and now it's down to 130,000, that's 20,000 fewer households that stand to see the full-page ad announcing Saturday's sale on children's shoes. That's 20,000 households that won't receive the freestanding insert announcing the storewide sale on home-improvement products.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4726844761468242273.post-38840595239385843392009-08-04T15:38:33.595-07:002009-08-04T15:38:33.595-07:00MORE PROSPECTS IN WASHINGTON STATE TOO, CAN I GET ...MORE PROSPECTS IN WASHINGTON STATE TOO, CAN I GET A FINDERS FEE?<br /><br />Declaring Print News 'Dead,' Publisher Shutters Biz Papers <br />(E&P Staff) <br /><br />CHICAGO In a farewell print column, Publisher Joe Kennedy declared print news "dead," and said he is ceasing publication of his Bellevue, Wash., weeklies, the Bellevue Business Journal and Eastside Business.<br /><br />Instead, the enterprise will focus on reaching readers and advertisers online and through social media, Kennedy said. <br /><br />"It's no secret that the print news industry has been hurting for some time," Kennedy wrote, "but with the amazing and exciting evolution of social media, it has become all but irrelevant.

Most of those departing are expected to leave the company this month, a story on the paper's Web site stated.<br /><br />"The advertising recession continues to affect our business," Steven J. Smith, chairman and chief executive officer of Journal Communications Inc., the paper's owner, said in a statement. "While these changes are difficult, we must be diligent about reducing our expense platform in order to preserve the overall strength of the Journal Sentinel through and beyond this challenging time."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
