Description
As newspapers struggle to survive in the digital age, this book asks what happens to the press’s most essential public role—and how it can be sustained. Philip Meyer examines the economic forces behind newsroom decline and proposes a practical business model designed to preserve the social responsibility functions of journalism, even as traditional revenue streams erode. Blending clear-eyed analysis with policy-minded solutions, he explores how communities can maintain reliable reporting, accountability, and civic information without relying on nostalgia for the old system. For readers interested in media, democracy, and the future of public trust, this is a rigorous, forward-looking blueprint for keeping journalism viable and consequential.
