I worked in the media space since 1985. Several of those years included Gannett @USAT and USAW as well as across the entire org. My other traditional tours included Meredith and Time Inc. Followed by a jump to digital at AOL and several start ups that disrupted the status quo. I remember teaching at Michigan State CASS school in 2008 and telling the journalism class that they need to prepare for the demise of print. The analog world had run its course.
I am sad to see the NVR go this path, but I understand. I am glad to see to the rise of a new digital play that will keep the local vibe alive. It is an imperative. Every community needs to stay the course on civic discourse in this fragmented mediascape.
The Register has been suffering for quite a while. It is certainly a shame as we need local print for our civic and social health. But if people are not subscribing there is nothing that can be done to make them read. We subscribe to both the Reg and your publication plus a number of magazines in print and online. The only newspaper we get in print is the Mountain Messenger from Downieville! It is full of good stuff. Keep on keepin’ on. We need your news.

That is why we subscribe to your efforts.
Thank you. Together we can make a difference.
