“It is the best of times…
New digital tools and methods of investigation and storytelling
Digital tools find stories in the data
Digital requires:- Technology- Design- Engaged audiences
BUT…

“It is also the worst of times…
Traditional media struggling, limited resources for complex stories
Competition for foundation grants and fellowships increasing
Digital media mostly focused on “breaking news” and opinion

But may not be able to fund them alone
Create networks of media to distribute media for a fee

Paid Content
Many paid content models emerging, but…
…requirements are not easy to meet:- online payments infrastructure (like paypal, alipay)- or hybrid offline payment, online fulfillment model- online curation and recommendation engines- the major platforms limited to text and illustration
Mobile platforms are helping to solve some problems

What about advertising?
Growing market, but model requires- Context- Page views
Advertising doesn’t yet provide a premium for engagement
Video may create a model, but still a small part of the global advertising mix
![Page 26: Journalism in the Digital World - November 2013](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062513/55536682b4c905031f8b5265/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
It is both the best and worst of times.
New tools to aid the investigation
New techniques to tell the story and engage the audience
Funding is a challenge+ Matching costs with potential revenues+ Managing multiple revenue streams+ Understanding and implementing the technology
