What has the US newspaper industry learned from the devastation wrought by digital competitors? A new study tour shows how much.
The World Editors’ Forum event in Washington and New York in November gives insights into how leading news organisations are adapting to and succeeding in the new media world.
The multi media newsroom will be a focus of the study tour as well as the integration of new technologies, data journalism and the evolving relationship with the audience, especially through social media.
The five-day WAN-Ifra organised study tour (November 4-8) promises participants the opportunity to meet with editors at US news organisations including the New York Times, News Corporation/Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Huffington Post, Digital First and USA Today.
Beyond traditional print newsrooms, visits to Twitter and Facebook offer a chance to meet and learn from social media.
