... the tv news biz is poised to start a period of contraction. Blame it on a number of things--more competition from cable and the internet, poor quality of on air content, overhype, etc. The bottom line is, surveys show journalists have lost a great deal of credibility with the public, and viewership and readership are on a steady decline. Let's face it folks--this is a free fall, and there's no end in sight to the downward slide. Sure, folks may still tune in for major local disasters, but daily coverage has growing increasingly irrelevant and is getting less and less attention.
