The Chronicle of Higher Education - in this article accurately described as "stodgy and resistant to change" - has been shaken up and now faces new competition as two former senior staff - Scott Jaschik and Doug Lederman, the editor and managing editor of The Chronicle - left after 20 years to form their own online publishing venture, Inside Higher Ed. The best news about this new publication is its commitment to accessibility: "You don't need an expense account any more to get the best news, information and career services... All of our content is free." Worth noting: "The Chronicle grossed $33 million in advertising revenues and $7 million in circulation revenues in 2003."
