Capitalnewyork.com quotes Brown on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” "We
just decided to take the plunge.”
"We decided that we wanted to embrace the future and
not try anymore talk about the legacies of the past. It costs $43 million to
print, manufacture, distribute, manage the distribution of Newsweek before you
can even hire one writer or one editor. And that is just the most enormous
millstone to deal with in a era where people are telling us more and more it's
all about screens."
That said, Brown did acknowledge the more somber reality
that the digital transition is going to mean laying off a yet-to-be-determined
portion of her staff.
