What's Black And White And Not Read All Over?: An Examination Of The Evolving Landscape Of Newspapers Through The Lens Of The New York Times, Anne Reiber

Newspapers across the US, including large and well-established publications have been forced to find new strategies that allow them to keep up with new digital technologies. The New York Times was the focus of this study, but it is only one part of a very large industry. However, it …

They utilized a mixture of assets including text (almost all), photos (an average of five), videos (almost half had one or more), interactive elements (20 percent) and GIFs. Only 75 percent of ads …
