Hi, need to submit a 1250 words paper on the topic Rolling News in the Face of Print Newsroom. Success in newsprint profitability, newspaper publishers are now facing stiff competition from free dailies, internet, multiple television and radio sources in terms of news dissemination and advertising too. Advertising being the main source of revenue for such media has seen the print media decline in revenues, titles, circulation as well as a decline in readership. Some of the economic crises that have been observed originating from the developed countries trickling down to the developing countries too have amplified the downward development of the print media too, (Trager, 1974).

In the period between 2004 to 2007, the global newspaper market has seen negative to almost zero growth and a further zero growth has been observed in the years after 2008. General, regional and local press have been affected where the year 2009 was forecasted as the worst with the largest declined in the united states, the united kingdom, Greece, Italy, Canada and Spain. The larger declines in online and offline revenues can be attributed to the economic crisis which created additional problems for most print media where some of the dailies have ceased operation. Worse still, some of the print companies were forced to close down and shredding of newsroom staff in some countries where structural factors were compounded by cyclical factors.

Many countries saw the employment decline in the newspaper industry since 1997 in many countries and this further intensified since 2008 particularly in countries such as the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and Spain.
