Is the Internet Killing
Dan Mitchell, writing in the New York Times, is asking the question "is the Internet killing tv?" "One recent week, the video blog Rocketboom drew an average of 200,000 people a day to watch its short daily news reports on technology, the arts and other topics," notes Mitchell. The Abrams Report, on MSNBC, meanwhile, drew 215,000 viewers to its weekday hourlong show about legal issues. "Does this anecdote that an unpopular cable news show and a wildly popular Web site draw similarly sized audiences prove that the Internet is upending the economics of the television business?" adds Mitchell.
