Local Newspapers, Radio Stations, And television Affiliates Are The Ones That May Be Most Easily Disrupted By Changes In Technology And advertising.
As we look toward the way ahead for reports, it is clear that many big, state stories brands are here to stick around.
But what about local stories? Local papers,list of radio stations, and television affiliates are the ones that might be most simply disrupted by changes in technology and advertising. What replaces them as they are going away?
One idea — debated here before by colleague Nicholas Carlson — is that Facebook’s stories feed could take over their responsibilities.
How’s that?
In a Adage poll, folk related the 2 most important reasons they subscribed to local papers were for local stories and vouchers. Well, Facebook already aggregates and distributes both those.
Rather than requiring a local newsroom to present local stories and events, your friends — and Facebook’s algorithms — could do it for you, complete along with pictures, videos, and so on.
Rather than buying classifieds and placing coupons in local papers, businesses could buy Facebook ads, targeting them based on your geography, and even much more specifically than that. And when Facebook rolls out Groupon-style “deals,” businesses could buy those, too.
The question, then, becomes : If Facebook is arranging and presenting this info to you, who’s writing it in the 1st place? Who’s covering local city council conferences? Who is covering crime and car crashes and obituaries and new business openings?
The answers will vary.
In the smallest of cities, perhaps some of that sort of journalism will get more of a pursuit than a profession.
There are thousands of glorious neighborhood blogs out there today, written just for fun . And it does not even have to be a post. If a local business closed, you will find out about it from a friend’s status update just as simply as from a newspaper. And that was a lot less expensive to produce.
Additional info might be spread from government agencies and enterprises to folks, thru tools like Facebook, instead of being rephrased by somebody between. (And govts and firms will seek more feedback directly, too.) This won’t be the only real way it occurs, however it will most likely happen more.
People will need to learn how to trust different stories sources differently, and to hold folk accountable for their statements — the way they already do. Officers and companies must learn the way to communicate better. And people will need to learn to seek out different stories sources for different subjects. But the world isn’t going to break up, and folk will figure out how to make it work.
Okay, this sounds extreme. The reality is that change will take a long while, and will likely be more refined. Heck, by the time your local paper folds, Facebook’s reign as the social networking king may be over, and there may be even more recent, better tools for reports distribution.
But the big idea is still valid : Local stories distribution is bound to change, as last century’s economics stop working. And Facebook’s stories feed — already seen by many millions of folks — could play an enormous role in the way forward for stories.
Facebook is one of the biggest web sites in the world, with more than 5 hundred million monthly users. The site was started in 2004 by founder and Head honcho Mark Zuckerberg when he was an undergraduate student at Harvard.
Since Sep 2006, any person past the age of thirteen with a valid e-mail address can join Facebook. Users can add “friends” and send them messages, post announcements, and update their personal profiles to notify friends about themselves.
The name of the service springs from the colloquial name for the book given to scholars at the start of the educational year by university administrations in the USA. The aim of the book is to help scholars to begin to know one another better as reported tagza.com.
