    Journalism Today: New Voices, New Models, New Methods | Global Conference 2024

    Josh Barro, Carlissia Graham, Nicholas Johnston, Jon Kelly, Janice Min, Kimi Yoshino

    Industry leaders and investors convened to analyze sustainable business models capable of reversing the journalism sector's decade-long revenue decline, featuring case studies from The Ankler, Puck, and the Baltimore Banner. The discussion emphasized that while philanthropic capital and AI efficiency offer operational relief, viability ultimately requires immediate profitability or a clear path to diversifying revenue beyond traditional advertising. Panelists further warned that billionaire ownership does not guarantee stability and argued against relying on government subsidies that might compromise editorial independence.
