The exponential growth of online newspapers in the last decade1 may be considered a function of the Internet's potential for interactivity, a key quality of new media.2 Such interactive qualities of the Internet provide unique opportunities for online news publications to engage their news audiences with increased control, multimedia storytelling experiences and interpersonal communication opportunities. [...] online news publications allow their news audiences to have increased levels of experiences in their news consumption.
Even though it's a challenging environment for newspapers, David Tyler, Jr., one of the three principals who own Community Media Group, sees the company as having a good, solid foundation in the communities it serves. Ronald Teplitsky of Next Point, LLC in Buffalo, a business advisory group, also provided financial advice for Eagle Media, LP in the transaction.
This study sought to verify conventional wisdom that the presence of ethnic journalists-Asian Americans in this case-results in more and better coverage of ethnic groups in a community. Nine newspapers were analyzed from communities with varying Asian American populations and geographic regions. Newspapers with more Asian American staff provide more stories about Asian Americans. Likewise, newspapers in cities with larger Asian American populations have more Asian American staff and cover Asian Americans more. The impact of Asian American staff on coverage was greater than that of Asian American population. The influence of Asian American staff was found in sourcing, substance, and context of stories.
