[...] What Happens When Your Local Paper Goes Online-Only? It Loses Most of Its Staff Now back to Josephsonâ€™s news site of the future: He imagines that the tiny editorial staff of the model newspaper produces an extraordinary number of page views â€” 40 million per month, in this example â€” and then augments it with twice as many page views from a third party network (which could be, but doesnâ€™t have to be, supplied by Outside.in).

[...] Newspaper Model for Success: Ditch the Press, Dismiss the Staff The pitch: Outside.in wants to help local news sites by supplying them with a river of extra content created by local bloggers, Twitterers and lots of people who don’t even think of themselves as content creators, like people who post real estate listings. The local site is supposed to aggregate and filter the stuff and sell ads on it. The people supplying the content get more exposure via links from the bigger site.

While this article has sparked a great conversation there is a vital answer to the question you pose at the start of your article that no one has touched on yet. In considering the impact of news moving exclusively online we have to be aware of the fact that roughly 40% of America still doesn’t have access to high-speed internet.

While I have no doubt that more and more journalism will be moving online, and in general I think this is a positive move, in the short term we need to ensure that we are not cutting people and communities off from the news and information they need.

In our report Saving the News: Toward a National Journalism Strategy (http://www.freepress.net/node/57076), we develop a set of policy recommendations for the future of journalism and discuss the importance of expanding broadband access to foster innovation and support the future of news gathering. As news moves online we also need to address policy issues like Net Neutrality, to ensure the web remains a level playing field for all news outlets.
