Non-profit web-based journalism
MinnPost:High-quality journalism is not just a consumer good; it's a community asset that contributes to the health of our democracy and the quality of our lives.
- Whenever we speculate on how we can survive the upheavel in journalism, I usually answer, 'Let's ditch print and go solely online.' It would never happen of course. First, advertisers will stay pay decent money for print, not so much web. Second, our print subsribers are older and less enthused by going online.
But eventually corporations will divest themselves of newspapers and it will be non-profits or a few hardy souls working out of their homes who will carry the torch.
