Patrick Purcell - Boston Herald Publisher at MIT Sloan
March 8th, 2007
Patrick Purcell, Publisher of the Boston Herald, came to MIT Sloan last week to discuss the dynamics of the newspaper industry. Some of the interesting things that were discussed were:
- Today, on average, traditional newspapers lose between 1 percent and 3 percent in circulation each year.
- Consumers forced the Herald from having a subscription online service to a freely available service in the 90s.
These are some of the reasons why we created AudioDizer. We want people to be able to get the content in the format they prefer.
