The rise of instant information and digital first has left journalism in a state of change. Has self-preservation led to innovation? At our January meet-up, Social Media Club South Florida teams up with PRSA Miami to present an expert panel to discuss the future of journalism. How technology and instantaneous information are reshaping news – not only how it’s discovered and consumed, but also how it’s reported and distributed.
Our esteemed panel will address key issues such as:
• Mobile and media
• Speed vs accuracy
• The new journalist? Part investigator / writer, part sales person
• How integral is SEO
• Independent bloggers and freelancers vs traditional reporters
• The role of citizen journalism
• The profitability forecast
