The New York Times quotes Poynter’s Rick Edmonds on the New York Daily News upgrade to new, high-speed presses:
” ‘The idea that this is a good investment isn’t crazy, and advertisers do like it when you improve the print quality, but it’s very hard to see into the future of this business,’ said Rick Edmonds, a media business analyst at the Poynter Institute, a school for journalists. ‘I think we’re getting into a period where the industry is divided into those papers that retain their presses, and print other papers as well, and those that shut down their presses and outsource printing.’ “
