Schooling Newsrooms & Keeping Up with Social MediaAt Scale

SYNOPSIS

There’s no shortage of blogs, Facebook groups, and conferences that inform journalists on what works and doesn’t in regards to social media in the newsroom. It’s a lot to keep up with, so how can a journalist avoid being left behind? 4 experts in managing this at scale explain how newsrooms (and journalists alone) can cut through the noise, find actionable advice, and stay on top of the ever-changing state of social.
