Sarah Marshall of Journalism.co.uk reports that the Financial Times CEO John Riding believes that the newspaper’s revenue from content could pass its revenue from advertising in 2012.
“Speaking on a panel debating ‘the future of digital journalism and news,’ Ridding said the FT’s relationship with its readers has helped to ‘sustain’ quality journalism.
Having that understanding about what readers want is very helpful in continuing to improve the quality of journalism we provide.
We are confident in the business model and confident it will not just sustain quality journalism but enable us to further build quality journalism.

“During the panel Ridding also spoke about mobile, which he said has been ‘a complete game-changer’ for the FT.”
