The Seattle Times' regular guest columnist and journalism professor Floyd J. McKay laments the existence of marketing.
One of the results of our incessant marketing is that we are willing to be used, ourselves, to market the products of others.Unfortunately for professor McKay, he is also being used (unwittingly, it seems) to market the products of others. If the Seattle Times is typical of other newspapers, about 16% of its revenue comes from circulation, 82% from advertising. Posted by Stefan Sharkansky at July 23, 2003 11:27 AM
