54,200 newspaper, magazine jobs axed since 2003
[WASHINGTONEXAMINER] The decade-long devastation of the print news business, crushed by the sagging economy, the evaporation of classified and display advertising, and a reader shift to digital media, has cost at least 54,200 newsroom jobs in newspapers and magazines alone, according to Pew Research.That figure, buried in a new Harvard University ...home of the Best and the Brightest, contributed $878,164 to the 2008 Obama campaign. Is there a reason universities are among the top financiers of political campaigns? study about the troubles non-traditional news hounds have getting congressional, White House and other official press passes to cover news events, is the highest calculation of job losses in American journalism yet.
