US: WSJ merges NY Tech and Media bureaus

Posted by Jean Yves Chainon on September 26, 2007 at 9:34 AM
The Wall Street Journal is merging its New York tech bureau with its Media & Marketing group, in light of industry changes and the diversified activities of tech and media companies.

 
“The tech group oversees a broad swath of coverage, with particular focus on telecom, internet and cable. Increasingly, though, the business models of those industries are being transformed as lines blur between content and distribution,” said Deputy Managing Editor Bill Grueskin and Managing Editor Marcus Brauchli in a memo.

“It will enable us to create or modify beats to more fully reflect how people watch or create video, read news and communicate with each other.”

As big companies create bigger conglomerates and diversify their operations, other papers may want to reconsider the way they split their business coverage.

As an avid reader of Naples Daily News and user of their XML / RSS streams and listener to their podcasts, I look forward to their online videos as well.

Naples Daily News has one of the best online newspaper websites and they're constantly changing. They took the daring plunge to include easy-to-add comments to each article, which has spawned discussions, brought people with similar likes/dislikes together. Something so nice and simple can make such a tremendous difference!
