Trust me, it was indeed a staggering amount. It takes a lot of online subscribers just to make up the revenue from one single day run of a quarter page ad.

I was one of those workers. I saw too many of my co-workers get pink slipped and have to scramble to find some way else to feed their families, with varying degrees of success. I left for another company because the writing was on the wall for my department. But man oh man, it used to be fun there.

Re: Washington State scouting/prediction thread
"Wasn't anything of value" is an oversimplification of my point. "Wasn't much of value" is more accurate. If you find that a product you use is been reduced to half its size, made to lower quality standards, and now costs you twice as much, you're going to start thinking about if it's really worth it. I'm going off my experience locally. The content got really, really sparse. Neighborhood sections - Gutted. State/Local section - shrunk so small they ended up just making it part of main. Which had shrunk big time as well. Sunday TV section - gone. Like I said, I kept hearing people ask me what had happened, why the paper was so small.

The New York Times is alive because they've kept a ton of content. They've seen drops as well but they also have nearly a million digital subscribers. This is in addition to their print subscription base. People won't cough up $20-30 for a monthly online subscription if the content isn't there, let alone $500-$1000 a year for print subs. As the model shakes out, there's going to be cuts and refocusing of newsrooms, but the simple fact is you have to have something for people to read or people won't pay anything. Things are going to change - advertising will not be as lucrative, but costs will also go down dramatically once the physical product gets reduced. Newsprint, ink, presses, and trucks are very expensive. It will be interesting to see how things shake out.
One of the biggest threat to the survival of newspaper operations is the consistent need to keep those quarterly numbers up for stockholders. There will always be some money in the newspaper operations that survive and advertising will never completely go away. But as long as they keep having to work the numbers as good as they can for the quarterly reports, the long term prospects will get dimmer and dimmer because the profits won't be re-invested in the operation. A lot of these operations will get picked up for pennies on the dollar and become mouthpieces for the owners.

Re: Washington State scouting/prediction thread
Yes, people cancel because content has shrunk, but that occurred AFTER the "staggering" amounts dwindled and the model broke. Not during. Of course people don't want to pay more for less. They were barely paying in the first place relative to what it takes to produce a newspaper.

Ninety to 95 percent of profits still come from the print product. What the NYT has done digitally is a drop in the bucket. Despite having abundant content "of value", they have struggled. Closed bureaus. Laid off people. Leased back the building. If 1 million digital subscribers can't head that off, then how many would it take? How large would the staff have to be? How much more investment would you prescribe for them and based on what marketing information?
You can't really believe that with thousands of newspapers and magazines across the country, that nobody thought of what you said. Oh, more content of value! Who knew?
For three decades we were told we needed to compete with TV. Shown marketing studies that people spend 15-20 minutes with a paper. Watched USA Today rise to the top in circulation. So ... shorter stories, more color, more photos, more graphics. Cut back on in-depth coverage. Quit "jumping" stories from page to page.
Now the problem is: Where's the content and depth? I truly love such readers, but they are sadly in the minority. We get more complaints about messing up the Crossword Puzzle or leaving out The Jumble. We're in a time where people will pay more for high school recruiting tidbits than the news. I don't have the answers. Point is, you don't either.
So let's talk football. I'm sure some coaches with far more experience than us can benefit from our insights.

BTW though it's a bizarre tangent on this thread, I have enjoyed reading azpenguin & gumby go back and forth. Reminds me of a book "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" - the consolidation of media into a few corporate hands is not good for our democracy, because investigative journalism that uncovers corruption etc and keeps governments & corporations honest isn't profitable compared to regurgitating press releases. Maybe our best bet (sadly) is for media outlets to become like pro sports teams - vanity projects that rich guys buy for the notoriety, not to run it as a big moneymaking business (ala Bezos with WaPo).
Re: Washington State scouting/prediction thread
I'm one of gumby's minority of those readers, and I guess that's why I'm a writer for a newspaper now.
I love to talk football, but I also know that there's no answer for the free press in allowing under-literate audiences decide what the news is. Of course they'll gravitate to TV and the pictures, what mind resistant to any challenge wouldn't?
What the print media--us--need to establish is that we're more important. More important to people's daily lives, more important to issues affecting them. And we are.
Chomsky correctly pointed out that when print gets lazy and just runs stories from "official" sources that never investigate those sources independently--or, worse, frame their narrative to protect those sources--relevance is lost.
You want to understand your life and your world in the information age, you need to be a reader. That's how we can truly compete with other "news" sources, by proceeding from that philosophy IMHO.

Arizona football injury report: Nick Wilson, Cayman Bundage listed as questionable for the Wildcats
http://www.azdesertswarm.com/football/2 ... es-grigsby
http://www.azdesertswarm.com/football/2 ... es-grigsby
The official Arizona Wildcats injury report is out, and there are several names on it. Here's a quick look at how everyone is officially listed:
PROBABLE: Terris Jones-Grigsby (concussion), Jonathan McKnight (concussion), Parker Zellers (foot)
QUESTIONABLE: Nick Wilson (ankle), Cayman Bundage (knee)
OUT: DeAndre' Miller (shoulder)
So far in 2014, no player listed as questionable has played that week, which does not bode well for Wilson and Bundage, who both missed the USC game.
On the Rich Rodriguez Radio Show Wednesday night, coach told Brian Jefferies that Wilson appeared to be good to go, but I would take this info with a grain of salt, because RichRod never talks injuries publicly on a game week. In general, he is never truly forthcoming ever when it comes to the status of his players when it comes to an injury.
