  • 2011 State of the News Media Report
    Overview By Tom Rosenstiel and Amy Mitchell of the Project for Excellence in Journalism By several measures, the state of the American news media improved in 2010. After two dreadful years, most sectors of the industry saw revenue begin to recover. With some notable exceptions, cutbacks in newsrooms eased. And while still more talk than action, some experiments with new revenue models began to show signs of blossoming. Among the major sectors, only newspapers suffered continued revenue declines last year—an unmistakable sign that the structural economic problems facing newspapers are more severe than those of other media. When the final tallies are in, we estimate 1,000 to 1,500 more newsroom jobs will have been lost—meaning newspaper newsrooms are 30% smaller than in 2000. Beneath all this, however, a more fundamental challenge to journalism became clearer in the last year. The biggest issue ahead may not be lack of audience or even lack of new revenue experiments. It may be that in the digital realm the news industry is no longer in control of its own future. News organizations — old and new — still produce most of the content audiences consume. But each technological advance has added a new layer of complexity—and a new set of players—in connecting that content to consumers and advertisers. In the digital space, the organizations that produce the news increasingly rely on independent networks to sell their ads. They depend on aggregators (such as Google) and social networks (such as Facebook) to bring them a substantial portion of their audience. And now, as news consumption becomes more mobile, news companies must follow the rules of device makers (such as Apple) and software developers (Google again) to deliver their content.

  • A Learner First the 3Rd District Court Erred in 2007 When Judge Mark Kouris Dismissed Grantsville’S Claims for Breach of Contract
    FRONT PAGE A1 www.tooeletranscript.com TUESDAY Keeping pets safe through summer See A3 TOOELETRANSCRIPT BULLETIN May 18, 2010 SERVING TOOELE COUNTY SINCE 1894 VOL. 116 NO. 101 50¢ TEACHER OF THE YEAR Supreme Court clears way for G-ville vs. Tooele trial by Tim Gillie STAFF WRITER Grantsville City’s nine-year-old breach of contract lawsuit against Tooele City may go to a jury trial after all following a decision by the Utah Supreme Court to return the case to 3rd District Court. In a unanimous opinion issued Friday, the Supreme Court granted legal standing to Grantsville and returned several issues in the lawsuit to the district court, while also upholding a portion of the district court’s dismissals in the case. Overall, the decision represents a small victory for Grantsville in the costly and long-running legal battle between Tooele County’s two largest municipalities. Tooele City officials had hoped the case would end with the Supreme Court. The lawsuit stems from Tooele’s sale of 1,700 acres of former Tooele Army Depot property for $15 million in 1999 and centers on ques- Maegan Burr tions of what Tooele promised to do in a Grantsville Junior High School teacher Corey Grua talks to his first-hour class Tuesday morning about the core test that they took the day before.
