  • Those of us who covered media were told for years that the sky was falling, and nothing happened. And then it did. Great big chunks of the sky gave way and magazines tumbled — Gourmet!? — that seemed as if they were as solid as the skyline itself.

  • I believe that the underlying facts about the Wikipedia phenomenon -- that the general public is actually intelligent, interested in sharing knowledge, interested in getting the facts straight -- are so shocking to most old media people that it is literally impossible for them to report on Wikipedia without following a storyline that goes something like this: "Yeah, this was a crazy thing that worked for awhile, but eventually they will see the light and realize that top-down control is the only thing that works."

newspapers media FAIL journalism businessmodels

  • Consumers don’t pay for news. They have never paid for news.

    The problem of the daily press in the U.S. is exclusively this: the collapse of its business model. That model used to be, plainly put, making money—a lot of money, oceans of money—delivering advertising on newsprint into peoples’ homes. Subscribers didn’t pay for news. Advertisers did.
    • Brilliant! so true and so obvious and yet every newspaper bitches about readers not willing to pay for news!!! As if we ever did, really. - on 2009-08-17

  • They were selling ads and charging a lot of money for them because of one thing only: They held an informal monopoly on a societal convention whereby they deposited those ads—around which they wrapped some reporting, some of it serious, some of it fluff—on subscribers’ driveways.

Diller Calls Free Web Content a ‘Myth, Joins Refrain (Update1) - Bloomberg.com

  • The media and technology executive, whose company runs the
    Ask.com search engine and the Match.com dating service, said
    it’s “mythology” to view the Internet as a system of free
    communications.


    “It is not free, and is not going to be,” Diller said
    today at the Fortune Brainstorm conference in Pasadena,
    California.

  • The Burbank, California-based company has opportunities to
    increase sales from the Web, Iger said. Online advertising can
    be improved, and marketers can target consumers by tracking
    their activities and interests. Subscription products are
    particularly promising to the company.

The Future of Media is much like its Past - broadstuff

possibly, apart from the fact that media may not be what we think it is in a distributed decentralise environment. it's like saying horse carriage and plane are both *transport* but there is a world of difference in their execution. In most fundamental way, media means 'mediating' something, which is a role that tends to disappear in a peer to peer distributed environment. Why keep calling it media then? It is a different way of communication and distribution all together.
