If printed newspapers are increasingly losing readers and are no longer the most important vehicle information, what journalists have done to counter the crisis of orphans?
Every time I ask journalism students with ages ranging between 16 and 18 on the printed newspapers they read at home, the answer is almost always the same: do not read any of them because their family environment nobody buys. The point is that not only young people who stay away from them, but a large percentage of adult citizens. The fate of printed newspapers seems to be irreversible: each day that passes they lose more readers. It is of course a worldwide phenomenon that began several decades ago and is linked to the development of television and the Internet.
In Peru there are 74 newspapers that make a total circulation of about one and half million copies. According to the report Trends' 07. Media communication. The Latin American scenario edited by Telefónica and publisher Ariel, Peruvians have 36.8 copies per 1000 inhabitants. This paper also reveals that the web blanket 38 editions of these newspapers, whose readership level is unknown, although we assume that is larger than the print media. One could assume that due to the large number of newspapers Peruvians have developed a great "journalistic culture" and a great "level of written information," however it is not. The number 74 is misleading. In fact, this is a range of media with uneven quality and monopolistic.
is attributed, as we said to the TV and the Internet the erosion of readership, this because the image is more explicit, synthetic and immediate than the written word. The development of information technologies has accentuated this difference and, of course, has led to a faster escape from the readers. The journalists and the public have become aware that newspapers are no longer "the single most important vehicle in the transmission of information." Its place is now occupied by Web sites and television channels. Again, the figures seem to give us the reason: in Peru, per 1000 inhabitants there are 227 TV sets and 293 radio. How can newspapers compete in this reality in winning several bodies of benefits the media? What did
journalists to counter the gradual leakage of newspaper readers? The fastest have articulated a number of tools and resources: the size "sheet" (or standard) have gone to tabloid or Berliner, which are more flexible and allow for large headlines and plenty of photographs and illustrations, of the compressed data have chosen to expand topics and story-telling, instead of the newsworthy fact that it revealed the day before the TV and electronic media now prefer a consequence of which is to highlight some or effect related to that fact, the design and content that readers liked the long haul have transmuted the format that meets the interest of readers care whose average does not exceed 21 minutes, and information dense homogeneous body have moved daily in-depth information supplements of various kinds.
What will happen in the immediate future of printed newspapers? I guess that will coexist for a long time about the electronic journals. The journalists, meanwhile, will continue devising new strategies to address editorial and graphic tomorrow in which readers become ever more fleeting and specialized. In the meantime, the remaining tasks remain the same as live on stage for the future: research and writing rigorously corrected. Print newspapers are no longer the most influential reference in the transmission of information, but have not lost their status as models of language use.
