Reporting Uncertainty

Reporting Uncertainty. The journalism industry is facing a difficult year ahead in terms of business prospects due to inflation, uncertainty, and a squeeze on consumer spending. 44% of editors, CEOs, and digital leaders are confident about their business prospects, while 37% are uncertain and 19% express low confidence. Print-based publishers are especially vulnerable, with a decline in print subscriptions and rising costs of paper, leading to cost-cutting measures and potential government intervention. Broadcasters are also facing declining audiences and increasing disruption, with a shift towards digital projects.
