Dan Froomkin: 'Playing it Safe' Is Killing the American Newspaper

We're hiding much of our newsrooms' value behind a terribly anachronistic format: voiceless, incremental news stories that neither get much traffic nor make our sites compelling destinations.

Timothy Karr: Big Media Myopia

It's hard to empathize with struggling newspapers when those running them continue to suffer from the short-sightedness that got their industry into a mess.

Linda Hirshman: Douthat Watch: Boring New Party

Douthat's core premise today -- that a real conservative should have run for President -- has been hashed out countless times already. Putting Cheney's name on the suggestion adds nothing to the argument except a prurient frisson.

People are finally seeing the Post for what it is - Murdock's r@cist rag. Moving upward and onward.

What a difficult business. Put there, of course, by....us...the people who are here and on the other hundred plus national and local online "news" sources.

The NYT, down 7% to under 1 million for the first time in years, didn't do as well as the WSJ (up .6% to 2 million) but handily beat the SF Chronicle (-25%), the Boston Globe (slightly better at - 18.5% than the Post at - 18.8%) and so on.

The reason the NY Post is losing circulation is that more and more people aren't literate enough to read simple news copy anymore.
As the Atlantic magazine story asked in the July/ August 2008 issue cover story: "Is Google Making Us Stoopid?"
Absolutely.

Oh, good! Any time I hear that News Corp is losing money my heart skips a beat! About the only thing keeping Murdoch afloat these days is Fox, so boycott the advertisers. It's working.
