Some stories on media Wednesday:
AllThingsDigital is reporting on forecasts from NPD Display Research that indicate more tablets than personal computers will ship in 2013. By 2017, it predicts three-quarters of the global tablet-laptop market will be held by tablets.
The FiveThirtyEight blogger for The New York Times, Nate Silver, took questions on Reddit on Tuesday. Silver's accurate work as a forecaster during the presidential election brought him immense attention. He suggested in the chat that between the partisans and the pundits, there are many "delusional" people to deal with.
AdWeek has an extensive feature on the growing pains of online community journalism as they attempt to find a sustainable business model. Many continue to find advertising and subscription support are insufficient to cover editorial and technical costs of operation. That being said, the situation isn't stopping many from taking the plunge.
