"In the online video syndication space, the largest video owners will not be the broadcasters. It's going to be the newspapers." That prediction came from Critical Mention CEO Sean Morgan at this morning's NYMIEG (New York Media Info Exchange Group) breakfast.

Morgan mentioned how a local TV station in San Jose produces about five or six videos a day, but the San Jose Mercury newspaper produces 60. "When we see these newspapers turn the corner by adopting new technologies that allow them to put a braodcast voice on their text news, the market is going to erupt."

Morgan also took the wraps off a free version of Critical Mention called Clip Syndicate that he said will offer clips for free that the stations want to distribute without the wall in front if it. http://mediaflect.blogspot.com/2007/05/in-video-newspapers-will-win.html; May 23, 2007
