NY TIMES Publisher "I really don't know whether we'll be printing in 5 yrs"
Despite his personal fortune and impressive lineage, Arthur Sulzberger, owner, chairman and publisher of the most respected newspaper in the world, is a stressed man. "I really don't know whether we'll be printing the Times in five years, and you know what? I don't care either," he says.
Declining circulation (Newspaper's most loyal customers, the WWII genration are dying off, the majority of the 18 - 35, and many 35 - 54 age cohorts grew up in households devoid of newspapers, and are now raising families devoid of newspapers), convergence and fragmented advertising share and so-called new-media all play a part.
