A bad week for the newspaper biz

As Jeff Jarvis notes in a post on Buzzmachine, it has been a pretty bad week for newspapers — just part of what has been a pretty bad year or two for the paper-based media business. Among the bad omens:

  • According to Editor & Publisher, newspaper circulation continues to decrease.
  • The WSJ says that print advertising is in decline.
  • Even family-owned newspapers are laying off staff.
  • The Chicago Sun-Times appears to be for sale.
  • The Toronto Star fired its editor-in-chief and publisher.
