[...] Online Revs Also Falling For Newspapers — We knew things were bad for the newspaper industry, but we didn’t know they were this bad. The Newspaper Association of America on Thursday said that not only did print revenues fall precipitously in the second quarter, but online revenues also fell 2.4% to $777 million. Really? Online revenues? There may be a recession going on outside, but online ad revenues haven’t actually been falling anywhere, not even at AOL. As TechCrunch’s Erick Schonfeld notes, the common practice of bundling print and online ad sales probably has something to do with the declines, as advertisers trained to buy the entire bundle are probably abandoning the whole package due to budget cuts. “The advertising recession is in full swing, and no segment is safe any longer,” he says.

Two things:

The liberal bias and slant inherent in the printed media is finally coming back to haunt. In the words of a famous (infamous) preacher: “The chickens have come home to roost.”

The decline started long before the advertising slump. Decline in readership = decline in advertising. Traditional, corporate owned media has been in a long decline due to the public’s perception that these are no longer trustworthy outlets for real information but have become outlets for corporate and government PR operations.

A steady rise in the subscriber base to alternative news outlets matches the decline curve. First they blamed the internet, then the old media outlets went online yet the decline continued. The largest sector of media consumers is approaching retirement age, not exactly the prime audience for internet based media if the explanations and excuses are real.

When the press returns to being truly free and performing real news gathering and un biased reporting the decline will soften. For many it’s too little, too late. I’d like to see more investors work on launching unbiased news outlets – I predict those would succeed. If they are allowed to do business in the first place.

[...] Can it get any worse for the newspaper industry? The steep decline in print advertising just keeps getting steeper and, for the first time, even online ad sales have gone down. Total print ads in the U.S. were down 16 percent in the second quarter to $8.8 billion. That makes nine consecutive quarters in which “print revenues have declined at an almost continuously accelerating rate,” notes Alan Mutter at Reflections of a Newsosaur. He put together the chart at left, which starkly illustrates the newspaper industry’s death dive. The newspaper industry took in $1.7 billion less in print ads during the second quarter than the year before For the first half of the year, the industry is down $3.1 billion. At this rate, there won’t be an industry left by the end of next year. Of course, revenues have to stabilize at a lower level before that happens. Don’t they? Right now, we’re at 1995 revenue levels.
