Hearst New Media panel
I’ll be in NYC this week to be on “The Changing Media Landscape” panel of the Hearst New Media lectures at Columbia University. It’s a nice homecoming to the place where I helped start the entire new media modernization of the Journalism school in 1994.
I’m glad to see more international representation than in years past, as the panel will consist of:
- Josh Cohen, business product manager, Google News (coming from the
Googleplex) - Hossein “Hoder” Derakhshan, an Iranian-born blogger,
journalist, and Internet activist (coming from Toronto) - Jonathan Dube, director of digital programming, CBC (coming from Toronto)
- Andrew Lih, author of a new book on Wikipedia and expert on Chinese media
(coming from Beijing) - Mindy McAdams, new media education pioneer and professor at University of
Florida (coming from Gainesville) - Michael Rogers, resident futurist of The New York Times (coming from
midtown)
Hope to see some familiar faces in the crowd.
