RTDNA, TVNewsCheck to host 'Putting the New Back in News' at NAB Show
RTDNA will partner with TVNewsCheck at this year’s NAB Show to present a joint session and networking event focused on how news organizations are rethinking their approach to content and audiences in a rapidly changing media landscape.
The session, Putting the New Back in the News, is scheduled for Sunday, April 19, at 4 p.m. PT at the Las Vegas Convention Center West Hall as part of TVNewsCheck’s Programming Everywhere conference. The discussion will immediately precede a happy hour co-sponsored by RTDNA.
The programming and reception are part of RTDNA's World Tour.
The program will bring together newsroom leaders from CBC, Gray Media, CBS and Hearst Television to examine how news organizations are responding to shifting audience expectations for authenticity, novelty and ubiquity across platforms.
Speakers include Lee Zurik, senior vice president of strategy and innovation at Gray Media; Barbara Maushard, senior vice president and chief content officer for news at Hearst Television; Mike Dello Stritto, vice president and news director at CBS Los Angeles; and Marc Lefebvre, senior director of operations at CBC News. The discussion will be moderated by Michael Depp, chief content officer of NewsCheckMedia and editor of TVNewsCheck.
