The age of convergence is forcing newspapers to transform themselves into TV and radio stations. One great example is of Star Tribune that just announced that it is installing a “stand-up” studio and editing suites, and plans to launch newspaper TV station.
“We are starting with information shows around content that we already own to a large degree: sports, local entertainment, lifestyle and news/public affairs (politics),” says Editor Nancy Barnes in a memo to staff.
“We plan to add a daily newscast, available on demand, and may expand into weather.”
The age of convergence is putting everything on its head. I love it.
