Life beyond print: Newspaper journalists' digital appetite

Today's newspaper journalists have no trouble envisioning a career where news is delivered primarily online and to mobile devices instead of in print, according to a new report by the Media Management Center. In fact, almost half think their newsroom's transition from print to digital is moving too slowly. This survey finds that many journalists are heavily engaged in digital activities in their personal lives and would like to devote more effort to digital products at work. But most of their time in the newsroom is still spent on print responsibilities. Among the study's other findings: Newspaper journalists still love their jobs; Online desire in the newsroom is not determined by age, years of journalism experience, or proximity to retirement; and Digital journalists know customers best.
