George Sylvie argues that most have responded in the wrong way, and that there is a need for these news organizations to refocus their attention on local communities and change the nature of the news they cover. This is an important book for anyone concerned about the future of journalism and news enterprises. -Robert G. Picard, Reuters Institute, University of Oxford Despite the common belief, the current problems confronting newspapers started well before the existence of the World Wide Web and social media. Two factors in its decline were the disinvestment in newsrooms and the disconnection that developed between journalists and the community they were serving. Local journalism's future survival depends on the ability of journalists to reconnect with their communities. George Sylvie has provided us with a well thought-out and detailed map as to how that reconnection could happen. The ideas in his book should promote serious thought and directed action by everyone who understands that democracy cannot survive without strong journalism. I recommend this book for scholars, students, and the public. -Stephen Lacy, Professor Emeritus, Michigan State University Author InformationGeorge Sylvie earned his Ph.D. from and is Associate Professor at the University of Texas at Austin.
