| | | Question of the Week | | | | Tuesday we asked: For years, the news industry has been going through a period of transition thanks largely to the internet. Average weekly circulation for U.S. newspapers fell 7 percent in 2015, the biggest drop since 2010, according to the Pew Research Center. Although people still overwhelmingly read newspapers in print rather than online, these changes have caused many small local newspapers to either go out of business, get bought out by large media companies, or explore other alternatives. | | What do you think lies ahead for smaller local newspapers? | | | Most days, I prefer Worcester Magazine over the Telegram. I am guessing there will be some of each. My experience is that one of the growth industries in media is the smallest of local publications, similar to those published by Landmark Publications of Holden.They thrive by adding online marketing to their services. Those that adapt to change and incorporate free print and online access will survive. | | See All Comments >> | | |
