16.07.2007: Die Zukunft der Zeitung nach Rupert Murdoch
Von: Kai Hattendorf
Die mögliche Übernahme des Wall Street Journal durch Rupert Murdoch liefert den Hinterrgund für eine exzellente Titelgeschichte der TIME diese Woche. Mittendrin - leicht versteckt - findet sich ein Gednakengang, wie die Zukunft des WSJ aussehen könnte:
"What if, at the Journal, we spent $100 million a year hiring all the best business journalists in the world? Say 200 of them. And spent some money on establishing the brand but went global--a great, great newspaper with big, iconic names, outstanding writers, reporters, experts. And then you make it free, online only. No printing plants, no paper, no trucks. How long would it take for the advertising to come? It would be successful, it would work and you'd make ... a little bit of money. Then again, the Journal and the Times make very little money now."
Also: Das "WSJ" ein reines Online-Medium? Die Diskussion um die Zukunft der gedruckten Zeitung geht damit sicherlich eine entscheidende Runde weiter.
