I'd think alot of newspapers are facing similar challenges as LaTimes.com; Only way is up with proactivity and give the tools of creation to the audience. Blog comments isn't enough.

LaTimes.com : "A philosophical clash between the website's top two employees -- general manager Rob Barrett and senior editor Joel Sappell -- also "hampered the site's ability to grow," the report stated. Barrett wanted the site to focus on "hyper-local" reports, to deliver Southern California readers information about their communities. Sappell argued for building "communities of affinity" rather than geography, and focused on multimedia presentations to showcase Times projects, the committee said."
