Making Sense of the Change in News

If you're trying to make any sense out of the dynamic and fast-paced changes happening in the news business:

The 2009 State of the News Media report is now available online.

"To make this comprehensive report easily accessible, we have summarized the main points of the study and provided key findings by media sector. Those summaries are available here.

The sixth edition of the Pew Research Center?s Project for Excellence in Journalism?s annual report on the health of American journalism totals nearly 180,000 words. It provides both aggregated and original research on the eight major sectors of media?newspapers, online, network; cable, local and network TV; magazines; radio and ethnic. This year?s study also includes special reports on the Year in the News, lessons from the 2008 election, an analysis of citizen media sites and more.

This report is the work of the Pew Research Center?s Project for Excellence in Journalism, a nonpolitical, nonpartisan research institute. The study is funded by the Pew Charitable Trusts and was produced with the help of several collaborators and a host of industry readers."
