Abstract
This is a Portuguese version. WHDH's Channel 7 News rose to the #1 position in Boston-area news broadcasting through its embrace of an innovative format and affiliating with NBC. Since the early 2000s, however, other news programs had copied their format, and young audiences had begin to use the Internet to get their news, dramatically cutting ratings and ad revenue. Station owner Edmund Ansin and general manager Chris Wayland faced a choice of whether to use the TV news to push viewers to the station's website and monetize online, or use an online presence to build loyalty to Channel 7 and thus drive viewers to TV.
