From The Media Center:

The Vanishing Newspaper: Survival and Public Service in the Age of We Media, March 9, 2005, 2:00-3:30 ET, online

Our good friend Phil Meyer has just published a book, The Vanishing Newspaper, which has inspired us to organize this online event that takes a good, hard look at the newspaper-business model and its viability in a digital world.

How can historic mass-media institutions use new communications trends and tools to once again take possession of credibility and public service, replant them in journalism's firmament, and transform themselves into vibrant 21st-century media enterprises?

This adventure in cyberspace will be lead by Jeff Jarvis, well-known blogger and president of Advance.net. Panelists include:

* Phil Meyer, Knight Chair in Journalism, UNC, Chapel Hill; author of The Vanishing Newspaper: Saving Journalism in the Information Age

* Stefan Dill, Online Editor, freenewmexican.com

* Mary Lou Fulton, Publisher, northwestvoice.com, the Bakersfield Californian

* Tim Porter, newspaper analyst and blogger
