Comments on: The value of The Eagle http://blogs.kansas.com/editors/2009/06/26/the-value-of-the-eagle/ Your window into the Eagle newsroom Sun, 25 Oct 2009 16:55:35 -0500 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5.2 hourly 1 By: WichitaWordsmith http://blogs.kansas.com/editors/2009/06/26/the-value-of-the-eagle/comment-page-1/#comment-1515 WichitaWordsmith Mon, 20 Jul 2009 18:49:36 +0000 http://blogs.kansas.com/editors/?p=570#comment-1515 That's great information... but I have to comment on something... how many words are available on any given news WEBSITE, including the Eagle. Don't get me wrong, I get my news from Kansas.com every day. I just fail to see the value of the newspaper these days. Its a dying media. I noted the Eagle's desperate attempt to convince the city that everything is fine (full page ad with a picture of the Eagle's dwindling staff and a letter from the publisher) in Sunday's paper. Yes, the Eagle still publishes a lot of words, but do they have any impact and does anyone really pay attention. What makes the Eagle special??? Why not just hit the online sources?

In addition, I have my daily subscription newspapers saved for me when I am away so I don't miss anything - as long as I have time to at least scan them once returning home. Keep up the GREAT work!

I like the full page ads that have been running on newspaper viability. It states that while print advertising revenue is down around 15%, readership is down only by 3%. And that the on line revenue and readership is up dramatically. I am surprised at the number of people who comment to me on Eagle only stories.
