• Newspaper Owners Failed To Act - Now They Face Alden Global Capital by Tony Silber (Publishing Insider on 12/02/2021)
  

  Ed, thanks for adding context and insight. I agree with you, while also noting that very few editors, reporters or ad-sales pros understood the impact that digital media would have on publishing. So yes, they share some responsibility. In the early days of the commercial internet—that is, the mid 90s to the early 2000s, when people were still on dial-up connections and there was no broadband, the near-universal approach was to dump print content on the website. And that was it. Those who did create original digital content staffed it with their B Teams. During this transition period, the money was still made in print—by a long shot. It took 15 years or more for that to decisively shift.
