Raymond, don't be in such a hurry to leave the internet.

Methinks your presence will still be required here.

>>>The audience for mainstream news is shrinking and newsrooms are cutting staff, according to a study by the Project for Excellence in Journalism.

At the same time, online news outfits and niche publications - including those that cater to ethnic groups - are growing.

Tom Rosenstiel, director of the nonprofit organization, said traditional news organizations, including newspapers and television, are locked in a vicious cycle. "As audiences fragment, newsrooms are cut back, which further erodes public trust," he said.

Among the findings of the study, to be released today:

* Daily newspaper circulation has fallen 11 percent since 1990.

* Network evening news ratings have declined 34 percent since 1993.

* Viewership of cable TV news is flat since 2001.

* Many U.S. newsrooms are seeing significant cutbacks. There are one-third fewer network TV correspondents than in 1985. There has been a 3 percent decline in news and editorial employees at newspapers since 1990 and a drop of 44 percent in full-time radio newsroom employees between 1994 and 2001. <<<
