Who owns statesman journal

Staff layoffs. See " Layoffs at Statesman Journal tied to worrisome Gannett 'newsroom of the future'. There's probably no way to reverse the impending demise of newspapers such as the Statesman Journal. Young people aren't interested in paying to read yesterday's news, especially when it is printed on paper.

And old people like me who are hooked on a daily newspaper are, sad but true, dying off. Allow yourself to sympathize with Smith for a moment. Think of the Denver Post and most other newspapers as your grandfather who is on dialysis, has a pacemaker and totes an oxygen tank behind him. Your grandfather is a pretty good stand-in for the average newspaper subscriber, too. So if harvesting market position has been the previous Gannett business model, seemingly this would make Gannett open to being bought out by investors who have a history of doing the same thing,.

Time will tell if this actually happens. If it does, likely this will bring the Statesman Journal closer to journalistic demise. Reblog 0.
