Event Details

This session we will have an intimate discussion about the Bridge from Traditional Journalism to Social Journalism.

How has social media platforms, blogs and online sourcing changed the face of traditional news sources?  How have those in television, radio and print changed the way they communicate to (and now communicate with) their viewers, listeners and readers respectively?  What are some of the pros and cons of the social web, when producing news products and disseminating information.

Join our panel of media personalities who have proactively embraced new media and how those changes have affected how each of them report on and participate in the community.
