Traditional Media Downfall Shown in Depressing Infographic
On the heels of Pew’s findings that newspapers gain only $1 in digital revenue for every $7 lost in print revenue, we now present to you even more depressing news. The Next Web has found perhaps the saddest traditional media related infographic ever.
A few lowlights:
- Between 2007 and 2010, 13,500 journalists have lost their jobs
- Amazon sells about 115 e-books for every 100 print books
- Just 31 percent of people who read a paper each day read it in print only
- Ful-time newspaper staff is at its lowest point since the 1970s
