In yet another sign that the apocalypse Internet Age, is fully upon us, The Christian Science Monitor has announced that it will cease publishing its weekday print editions and convert into an online only operation, with the exception of a new weekend magazine. While this news is not directly applicable to the Online Reputation Management Industry, it is an important symbol of a fast-turning tide in media consumption. Whereas people would traditionally turn to magazines, newspapers or television for information, they are now turning to the Internet in greater numbers.
The internet is increasingly becoming a larger part of people’s lives. From Online Dating to Online Trading, to eCommerce, people are more apt to use the net for transactions that were largely off line endeavors just a few years ago. CSM moving away from print may signal a new paradigm for news services who are struggling with declining circulation in a wired world.
