If this one is wrong sorry ill try to fix it This great tradition began to erode with the advent of broadcast news. Radio had a great golden age but TV was pretty quick to abandon research and professionalism for the quick and the exciting. Corporate ownership between 1990–2000 ki-led newspapers, with their Yale MBA bottom line thinking. I managed a newspaper that made a 40 percent profit but all they could think to do was cut and downsize. I could document this if you like, but that’s not really the question. I know of one newspaper worth $76 million (sale price) in 1990 and it was worth $18 million in 2001 (sale price). This was due entirely to the mismanagement of Donrey and Media News. The internet was not even present for half the decade and irrelevant in the other half.
