Luncheon Meeting - Tony Dearing of annarbor.com, News Media Revolution Revisited

Approaching the second anniversary of the demise of the Ann Arbor News and debut of its on-line successor, annarbor.com, we’ll get an insider’s report on a dramatic transformation in collection, packaging and distribution of local news in Washtenaw County. The history behind it is pretty well known, but we hope to learn from one of annarbor.com’s top managers how the transition has gone, whether the new enterprise has met expectations for editorial content, readership and financial performance, and where it goes from here. Introducer: Dallas Dort.
