Todo cambia en el nuevo mundo de los diarios
Un total de 259 diarios investigó el Pew Research para su estudio anual sobre las salas de redacción y cómo éstas enfrentan los desafíos de los cambios en la agenda, las audiencias y la intensa presión que pone internet. El estudio abarca desde los cambios en los contenidos en los diarios hasta el futuro de las salas de redacción. Lo notable son sus resultados: Dos tercios de los diarios estadounidenses publican menos noticias internacionales (a pesar de Irak y Afganistán, de la dependencia del Petróleo y de la influencia China, ironiza el director del programa en el NYT) y nacionales. Lo local es lo más fuerte. Muchos aprovechan la web para poternciar las noticias locales, abriendo el abanico con las actualizaciones horarias. Lo "hiperlocal" es lo que está tomando más fuerza. Los medios cada vez más cerca de las necesidades de la gente. En buena parte, lo que plantea la "cultura" Google. Este fenómeno está estrechamente relacionado con sitios vinculados a los barrios como el NYCity (en EE.UU.) o, en alguna medida, PlataformaUrbana (en Chile). De las decenas de conclusiones que expone el estudio, la mirada de los editores es especialmente nostálgica. Muchos de ellos está preocupado por la "institucionalidad" del periodismo (y su standard), porque la gente con experiencia deja el negocio y los jóvenes (sus reemplazantes) son periodistas más preocupados por el online que el papel. Vaya desgracia. En 10 años los nativos serán varias generaciones de consumidores de contenido y noticias. Habrá que ver cómo lo harán y qué valor le darán a la información. Seguro que las sorpresas no se acaban con este y otros estudios. Los medios tendrán que asimilarlo tarde o temprano.
Despite an image of decline, more people today in more places read the content produced in the newsrooms of American daily newspapers than at any time in years. But revenues are tumbling. The editors expect the financial picture only to worsen, and they have little confidence that they know what their papers will look like in five years.
This description is a composite. It is based on face-to-face interviews conducted at newspapers across the country and the results of a detailed survey of senior newsroom executives. In total, more than 250 newspapers participated. It is, we believe, the most systematic effort yet to examine the changing nature of the resources in American newspaper newsrooms at a critical time. It is an attempt to document and quantify cutbacks and innovations that have generally been known only anecdotally.
It has fewer pages than three years ago, the paper stock is thinner, and the stories are shorter. There is less foreign and national news, less space devoted to science, the arts, features and a range of specialized subjects. Business coverage is either packaged in an increasingly thin stand-alone section or collapsed into another part of the paper. The crossword puzzle has shrunk, the TV listings and stock tables may have disappeared, but coverage of some local issues has strengthened and investigative reporting remains highly valued.
The newsroom staff producing the paper is also smaller, younger, more tech-savvy, and more oriented to serving the demands of both print and the web. The staff also is under greater pressure, has less institutional memory, less knowledge of the community, of how to gather news and the history of individual beats. There are fewer editors to catch mistakes.
