Not Comics: CJR On The Business Of Digital Journalism

image

The Columbia Journalism Review has a broad survey-style story up on the state of digital journalism from a business standpoint, with a main page here leading to many others and a PDF download. I have to imagine there are a bunch of lessons for anyone interested in the coverage side of the comics industry; I found parallels in a bunch of their examples to things going on in comics coverage. The main takeaway for me so far -- I have to re-read, more slowly -- is that comics sites operate in a saturated environment. Heck, CR isn't even the only comics-focused magazine out there with the word "Reporter" in its title.
