I spoke of wanting a studio to work with editorial/magazines and adventure and lifestyle images. This is due to the demise of traditional journalism.
So here you go for your reading pleasure:
The News Business: Out of Print
"Philip Meyer, in his book “The Vanishing Newspaper” (2004), predicts that the final copy of the final newspaper will appear on somebody’s doorstep one day in 2043."
I predict sooner than that.
"Taking its place, of course, is the Internet, which is about to pass newspapers as a source of political news for American readers. For young people, and for the most politically engaged, it has already done so. As early as May, 2004, newspapers had become the least preferred source for news among younger people."
I would be so lucky to land a decent spot with a paper that I would be able to feel secure about. With so many photojournalist out of work I have a lot of competetion. I have entered the arena and waiting it out.
