Mondo Times editors Boulder Colorado USA | Posted at 11:05pm on Wednesday, June 10th, 2009 | TV Week editor Greg Baumann said this farewell to print publication in the final print issue of the magazine, published on June 1, 2009:
"Along with the contractions that have wracked TV, the trade press has suffered. Cuts have resulted in less penetrating coverage. This has made the trades, traditionally deep in the thrall of the companies they cover, even less feisty.
TelevisionWeek, which made its name forcing existing trades to be more competitive, hasn’t been immune. But by becoming a Web-only entity, it has found a path through the woods.
The reader can decide, but for my money TVWeek pound-for-pound is the toughest trade in the game. Even as we thinned down, we kept scoring scoops thanks to reporters like Josef Adalian, Michele Greppi, James Hibberd, Jon Lafayette, Chris Pursell and Daisy Whitney.
It’s inevitable that the evaporation of the business-to-business advertising base in the TV industry will bring more cuts at the trades. Our move to the Web may be all the excuse that executives at other publications need to float similar plans. Once more, TVWeek is stirring up the Hollywood trade press.
The new TVWeek is journalism stripped down to its core: a news hound chasing stories, and a publication to distribute them. I’m proud to hand off TVWeek to a group that is more hungry and savvy than anyone in the game."

Eric Kallgren Boulder, Colorado USA | Posted at 4:41pm on Saturday, May 9th, 2009 | Television Week will become a web-only publication, and spin off a new magazine for news pros, the magazine announced on May 5, 2009:
"TelevisionWeek, the nation's leading TV programming newspaper, will cease print publication and become online-only beginning in June. It will also spin off its successful NewsPro supplement as a stand-alone print magazine. Both the continuing TVWeek Web site and NewsPro will come under the management of BtoB, a sister publication of TVWeek.
The last print issue of TVWeek will be on June 1, but coverage will continue after that on its Web site, at TVWeek.com, which also will be the home for NewsPro's Web site.
The stand-alone NewsPro magazine will launch in August and will be published monthly thereafter. For the past 10 years, as part of TVWeek, NewsPro has served journalists, news managers and news executives at all media organizations, including print, broadcast and online.
For TVWeek, which began in 1982 as Electronic Media and became TelevisionWeek in 2003, the move from print publication to online news service mirrors the transition being made by so many other trade publications, and for the same reason: There is no longer enough advertising support in the TV industry marketplace to support the high cost of print publishing."
