Tough Times For Papers, Even On Campus

Wikimedia

It's a tough business climate for journalism. 

How do you get people to buy the information you offer when they can get so much online, for free? 

The situation affects journalists-in-training, too, like at the Southern Oregon University online publication "The Siskiyou."

It ceased printing a paper version several years ago, and now faces additional pressures to deliver or face downgrades. 

Editor-in-Chief Eli Stillman visits.   

He says you can contact him directly with ideas or assistance: stillman@sou.edu
