2010 Profiles

“Marian Salzman: ‘Local will be the new global,’” The Independent, Jan. 4, 2010
Marian “is not afraid to tell things as she sees them,” according to this profile. Topics she covers in this interview about trends in media for 2010 range from the future of print newspapers and commercial television to instant messaging (“here to stay”) and Rupert Murdoch (“‘I don’t know if it’s geography or personal pull but a man is making a market here and I don’t feel that influence,’ she says, referring to the way the British media breathlessly responded to The Times’s online paywall plans and the attempted resuscitation of MySpace.”).
