Rob Curley: Why A Lot of Newspaper Sites Suck

September 17th, 2007 · No Comments

I’m an unabashed fan of Rob Curley. He recently posted a transcript from his interview with Northwestern’s Media Management Center for a report called “Running While the Earth Shakes: Creating an Innovation Strategy to Win in the Digital Age.”

Curley cuts to the chase in defining why newspapers have trouble in their approach to the web:

“So these people (the members of his team) are of the Internet. It is in their DNA. That’s what makes a lot of these newspaper sites completely suck is because so many of them are run by people who don’t have the Internet in their DNA.”
