While the number of news outlets continues to grow, the number of stories covered and the depth of many reports is decreasing, says a Project for Excellence in Journalism
report. What's most threatened, it says, "is the big-city metro paper that came to dominate in the latter part of the 20th century . . . Even if newspapers are not dying, they and other old media are constricting, and so, it appears, is the amount of resources dedicated to original newsgathering." (Related
