Recently I was invited to give a lecture at the University of Malaga --"The audiences are in charge: Are publishers listening?" The audience had students in their doctoral, master's and bachelor's programs, as well as a number of faculty. Below is a summary of the presentation. 1. The marriage of convenience between advertising and journalism is over. For proof, look no further than the graphic below, which shows that newspapers in Spain have lost more than 500 million euros in ad revenue since 2009, and that includes the revenue they get from digital. (The U.S. is very similar.) In the future, news media will need to develop a deep relationship with their users. The important thing will be not the quantity of eyeballs reached, as measured by page views and unique users, but the quality of the relationship with the users. Versi�n en espa�ol Read more �

Sylvia Chan-Olmsted is one of the leading scholars of media economics, and she stopped by the University of Navarra Dec. 13 to chat about some of the trends she is seeing in the industry. "Media companies need to translate data into intelligence." Chan-Olmsted, a professor at the University of Florida, singled out three trends: 1. There is a new value chain in media. Content is becoming "unbundled", meaning users can buy individual movies, TV shows, or songs without having to pay for products they don't want. Content is becoming crowd-sourced, meaning that consumers are recommending things to each other through social media. And the major media companies are harnessing their data about users to recommend media products and even create content based on their customers' tastes. Media platforms like YouTube , Apple , Amazon , Hulu , and Facebook are all starting to invest billions of dollars in original content to challenge Netflix , whose business model h...

It is not just journalists who are under attack in the digital world. Scientists have to deal with their own conspiracy theories hatched by the ignorant and malicious. Online, science competes with fluff and bluff When science enters the sphere of politics, religion, and business, the battle is on. In the 17th century, Galileo was convicted of heresy by the Catholic Church for teaching that the Earth revolves around the Sun. Charles Darwin was heavily criticized by the Church of England in the 19th century for his theories of evolution. And the teaching of evolution is under attack today in U.S. schools. The tobacco industry for decades successfully discredited science and scientists whose research linked smoking to cancer. The National Rifle Association has successfully lobbied Congress to prevent the Centers for Disease Control from doing research on firearms injuries and deaths. And the New Republic recently chronicled how the new leaders of the EPA are discarding established scie...

For those who could not attend the annual convention of the Spanish Journalism Society (SEP, Sociedad Espa�ola de Period�stica , in Malaga, Spain, May 24-25, below is a summary of my keynote address. (Here are slides of the English version , presented Sept. 22 at the Creima Conference in Oporto, Portugal.) The talk focused on two major trends in digital journalism that are taking place in many places around the world. The slides highlight examples of media from France, Holland, Mexico, the U.S., Germany, Peru, England, Colombia, Argentina, and Brazil, among others. Photo by Jos� Mar�a Legorburu 1. Publishers are pivoting toward users and away from advertisers and investors as their main source of financial support . The business model that depended on advertising to support journalism is moribund and nearly dead. The automated buying and selling of advertising is controlled by the duopoly of Google and Facebook, which have more and better data about news publishers' users than th...

Giving credit to others enhances credibility, trust We are not born knowing common courtesy. Someone has to teach us, and then we have to practice it. We also are not born knowing what plagiarism is, and those of us who haven't learned to avoid it could be in big trouble. Plagiarizing the work of others will get you expelled from a university , fired from a news organization , or dismissed from public office The issue of plagiarism is especially relevant at the moment in Spain, where high-ranking officials in two major political parties have had to respond to evidence of plagiarism?�? here and here ?�?revealed in investigative reports by the web publication eldiario.es and the TV station La Sexta. (See some other examples at the end of this post). Today it is so easy to copy and paste material digitally that some are getting sloppy and careless in newsrooms and academia. Here are some guidelines: On the most basic level, it's common courtesy. Don't take credit for someo...

Editor's note: an earlier version of this post had typeface issues; my apologies. An organization I work with that promotes development of independent media in Latin America, SembraMedia.org , recently asked me to make some predictions for 2018. ??I really had just one: Credibility will be the new currency of journalism in 2018 and the years to come. ?But to explain, here are that prediction's corollaries:?? 1. Independent media--those based on serving the public rather than turning a profit---will grow in importance through revealing corruption and holding authorities accountable. There are many examples. In the U.S., organizations such as ProPublica and Texas Tribune ; in Spain, eldiario.es ; in Peru, OjoP�blico ; in Colombia, Connectas and La Silla Vac�a ; in Mexico, Aristegui Noticias and Animal Pol�tico ; in Argentina, Chequeado ; and hundreds of others around the world. ?2. These independent media that serve the public first rather than political or economic intere...

Email has an intimacy that TheSkimm has used to build a loyal base of 7 million subscribers. Digiday has a weekly podcast about the business of digital media, and two recent interviews with founders of startups had nuggets of wisdom applicable to any media startup. Digiday's editor-in-chief, Brian Morrissey , interviewed The Business of Fashion 's Imran Amed about its move to a subscription model , and the founders of TheSkimm , Carly Zakin and Danielle Weisberg , about how they used email to build a loyal community. Elements of their success formulas 1. Passion for a topic that you can develop in a way that no one else is doing . a) Amed, then a consultant for McKinsey &. Co., began writing a blog in 2007 that talked about fashion as a business. He felt that no one was exploring the meaning of the numbers behind the leading fashion businesses. Over time, he developed a loyal audience who began suggesting ways he could monetize that audience. b) Zakin and Weisberg were...

These projects aim to restore trust. In a blog post earlier this year, I wrote about the importance of Credibility as the new currency of journalism , its significance in an era of distrust of the media, and its economic value for high-quality journalism. A big thank you to Christine Schmidt of Nieman Lab who has just produced a helpful list of news credibility projects . Among other things, it shows how the Knight Foundation is giving help to many of them. Below is an abbreviated form of Schmidt's list, with a few details on each project. Trusting News Participants/partners : Mainly local newsrooms, such as WCPO, the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, St. Louis Magazine; also A Plus, Religion News Service, CALmatters, Discourse Media, USA Today The Trust Project Participants/partners : News outlets like the Washington Post, The Economist, the Globe and Mail, Mic, and Zeit Online; tech companies like Facebook, Google, Twitter, and Bing; Institute for Nonprofit News News Integrity Init...

"You have to practice the values of independence and honesty." University of Navarra photo. An icon of Spanish broadcast journalism, I�aki Gabilondo , delivered a message last week designed to inspire and challenge 400 students and professors of journalism. "The future hasn't been written yet:, he told them. "The question, 'What is going to happen?' is irrelevant. What will happen will be determined by what you do, what you don't do, and what you allow to happen." Gabilondo, 73, was speaking at his alma mater, the School of Communication of the University of Navarra (class of 1963), where he also was a professor for several years. His eloquent baritone voice is well known to Spaniards after decades of presence on the morning radio news program Hoy por Hoy , roughly equivalent to NPR's Morning Edition . He recently asked Martin Baron , executive editor of the Washington Post, how journalism can survive amid all the problems we face, includin...

Alfredo Trivi�o has worked largely behind the scenes on some of the biggest digital media projects for some of the biggest brands in the world. But you might not have heard of him. Alfredo Trivi�o: users will own the media, in every sense He spent seven years in senior management roles at News Corp., ultimately as director of innovation, where he worked on development of a pay model for digital journalism and on long-term editorial and commercial growth strategies. (He is a 1999 graduate of the University of Navarra School of Communication, where I teach.) He was invited to give the closing keynote address last week to the annual conference of the Spanish Journalism Society (SEP, Sociedad Espa�ola de Period�stica). He ruminated casually about trends he sees in the worlds of digital journalism and digital commerce, mixing some English terminology into his Spanish presentation. Among the shifts he sees: A shift from journalism and commerce to journalism vs. commerce. That is, the...
