ST. LOUIS Nearly 100 leaders in the journalism industry are gathering in St. Louis for the Associated Press Managing Editors national conference Wednesday through Friday.

The conference is taking place in the same week that the Audit Bureau of Circulations reported average daily circulation at 379 U.S. newspapers fell 10.6 percent for the six-month period that ended in September.

Many of the sessions at the conference will focus on how newspapers can survive in the turbulent media landscape.
