Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy interviews Rich Hammond at Inside the Kings and David Pollak at Working the Corners:
In a general sense, where do you think print media hockey coverage is headed in the U.S. in the next few years? Can or will blogs fill in the holes in coverage for some fan bases?
HAMMOND: As much as I’d like to think otherwise, I don’t see how there’s going to be an increase of print coverage for hockey. Newspapers staffs are only going to continue to shrink, and as we’ve already seen, hockey coverage is one of the first things to go. Unless newspapers enjoy a huge resurgence, I don’t know what will turn that around.
Blogs most certainly have an opportunity to fill in the holes, even blogs that aren’t affiliated with newspapers or major media outlets. Bloggers who can develop credibility with their audiences have a wonderful opportunity to provide coverage to hockey fans who are hungry for it.
