Predictions about the future of the news business



We just finished our WISE course on the future of the news business. For the last class, I made four predictions and told the class that we'd review them in April of next year.
Here they are:

  • CNN is toast.

  • One or more major magazines will cease print operations because of postal rate hikes. (Newsweek).

  • One or more major daily newspapers in the Northeast will cease printing on one or more days per week.

  • Worcester will have no local radio news and no one will notice.
