Editorial
It’s all about News
For many years, industry pundits have speculated over the future of the news industry. Will the printed product survive? Will new channels replace existing ones? Will there be a viable business model for generating the revenue needed to keep the presses rolling? Competition has never been greater, as more and more players from “non-traditional” markets enter the news provision industry.
One of the key differentiators working in the favor of the traditional news organization is that the community has come to know and trust the printed product. They recognize the brand, they appreciate the commitment to quality journalism, and they are willing to pay for the privilege of being connected to the events occurring in their community.
Without doubt there are many challenges ahead for the news publishing industry and while technology is never likely to be the only answer, having the right technological infrastructure in place to support the newsgathering, reporting, production, storage and retrieval of news will be a vital component in a publisher’s overall news-generation strategy.
For the past 25 years CCI Europe has been providing one of the most robust and powerful production systems on the market in CCI NewsDesk. As industry requirements evolved so to have the CCI Europe’s range of editorial offerings.
In recent times, CCI Europe has added CCI NewsGate – a completely new type of
editorial front-end and newsroom content management system that enables full
content collaboration so that ideas can be turned into many useful products at
minimum cost, which is set to become the next platform for journalism. Another
exciting aspect of CCI NewsGate is the fact that the system will be expanded
with a pagination module to function as a complete, integrated
editorial/pagination solution using either CCI LayoutChamp or Adobe InDesign/InCopy.
CCI NewsDesk/CCI NewsGate form the basis of a powerful editorial solution that is designed to maximize the potential of the modern newsroom and provide publishers with a strategic basis from which to realize their visions of tomorrow.
