Letter From NY Times Publisher
Love this letter to readers from NY Times publisher Arthur Sulzber. Money quote:
We are grateful for your feedback and, most of all, for your commitment to The Times.
Then he continues to demonstrate that they are ignoring all the feedback. I think this post demonstrates that the NY Times completely doesn't get the social media and internet revolutions that their industry is facing.
Not sure if this subscription thing is going to work. I side with other wise observations:
- price discrimination by medium of consumption (different price for tablet?) +
- cost greater than online subscription to WSJ and Economist =
- Not a very compelling offering
I like the NY Times and wish them luck, but I won't be subscribing.
