The Seattle Post-Intelligencer stopped its print version. The Boston Globe is considering doing the same. And yet, these publications are not making enough money, typically from advertisers, from their online versions to survive in the form they exist today.

I am a news glutten — especially industry and business news, as well as some local. There are so many aspects of every topic, company, technology, .. that I rely on many sources. Do you?

How would you get trusted information should your primary news sources dry up? Will the myriad blogs, by non-credentialled sources, replace media as we know it today? Or is there another way of paying for professional reporting, editting and (e-)publishing?

What about the Cable TV model??
