Event description
For the May meetup at Hacks/Hackers Brisbane we'll explore the sometimes thorny topic of journalist and media on social media and digital platforms.
Some of the questions we might explore:
- What are the benefits and challenges of journalists and media outlets using digital platforms?
- What's the reason for getting involved — building or reaching an audience, finding interesting stories, simple community engagement?
- How and should you separate your professional and personal personas?
- Which platforms be more critically approached as objects of journalistic study and why?
- What makes a platform somewhere a media organisation wants to have a presence? And what might change that?
Our panelists will include experienced journalists and media experts. We hope you'll join us and look forward to the thought provoking and challenging questions you always bring to the discussion.
Panellists
- April Chan — ABC News, Vertical Video Lead
- Arjun Srinivas — QUT Digital Media Research Centre, PhD Candidate
