Panel Title: Student Media, J-School Newsrooms, and Class Publications: Can they Coexist? Panel Type: PF&R Panel Sponsorship: Law & Policy and The AEJMC Council of Affiliates (Associated Collegiate Press) Description of Panel: As journalism programs encourage their students to publish class material either to showcase students’ multimedia, blogging and social media skills or in an effort to fill gaps in news coverage through school-sponsored journalism projects, numerous issues can come to light. The move toward laboratory journalism and the shift toward a “teaching hospital model” of journalism education have the potential to create a tension between journalism schools and inde- pendent or semi-independent student media. While large schools with well-funded independent student media might be able to easily draw the line between the student press and in class journal- ism projects, other institutions may not. What is the impact on the institution when students are publishing material on a university sponsored website for credit? If the institution moves toward greater oversight, either to provide news to local communities or a national audience or simply to help their students build an Internet based portfolio, how are the legal liability of the school and the editorial autonomy of student media affected? What are the best practices for separating stu- dent media from school-sponsored media? How should faculty and student media advisers handle complaints about content from administrators? What happens to the public interest when local coverage, reliability and credibility are at risk? Possible Panelists: Jane Kirtley, Minnesota* Frank LoMonte, Student Press Law Center* Brant Houston, Illinois Kristin Gilger, Arizona State Moderator: Peter Bobkowski, assistant professor, Kansas Contact Person: Lillian Lodge Kopenhaver, Dean Emeritus and Professor School of Journalism and Mass Communication Florida International University [email protected] *panelist has committed to participate on the panel 4 Washington, DC Conference Joint Session Proposals Joint Session Proposal: AEJMC Conference August 8-11, 2013, Washington, D.C.

Panel title: Enlarging the Sphere of Legitimate Controversy: Is that a Good Thing? Panel type: PF&R Possible co-sponsors: Open Panel description: There have been countless “future of news” discussions. And there have been countless claims about how the Internet and social media will improve democracy. And, now more recently, there have been more cautious claims about “The Myth of Digital Democracy.” Years ago Daniel Hallin conceptualized a sphere of consensus, sphere of deviance, and a sphere of legiti- mate controversy. Expanded journalistic practices and a changing media political economy have expanded that sphere of legitimate controversy. But is this a good thing? If so, what does this say about our commitment to facts and to pragmatic problem solving? If not, what does this say about our commitment to democracy? This panel will explore these questions from a variety of perspec- tives. Possible panelists: Sue Robinson Matt Powers Robert L. Handley Michael Schudson Rodney Benson Steve Reese Possible moderator: Open Estimated cost: none Contact Person: Robert L. Handley, Ph.D. University of Denver 2490 S.

  • Vox Nears Deal for NYC Office at 85 Broad
    Vox nears deal for NYC office at 85 Broad Billion­dollar digital media firm eyeing 70K square feet of space at FiDi tower November 12, 2015 03:15PM By Rich Bockmann and Mark Maurer 1 « PREVIOUS NEXT » Vox Media CEO Jim Bankoff and 85 Broad Street in the Financial District UPDATED, Nov. 13, 9:54 a.m.: Vox Media is closing in on a New York office in the Financial District, according to sources. The online publisher is in advanced discussions to sign a lease for more than 70,000 square feet at 85 Broad Street. Vox, which is headquartered in Washington, D.C., and operates websites such as Curbed, SB Nation and Vox.com, is valued at $1 billion following a $200 million investment from NBCUniversal in August. In New York, it currently occupies more than 21,000 square feet at Princeton International’s 104 West 40th Street. By the end of November, it is expected to commit to two full floors at 85 Broad, a 30­story, 1.1 million­square­foot building that was Goldman Sachs’ headquarters for three decades. Vox would be the latest media company, after Time Inc. and Condé Nast, to move Downtown. CBRE’s Jeff Fischer and JLL’s Steven Rotter are representing Vox, while a JLL team led by Frank Doyle and Jonathan Schifrin are representing the building, which is owned by MetLife and Beacon Capital Partners. The brokers either declined to comment or could not be reached. The lease would bring the building closer to full occupancy. Asking rents in the building are in the $50s and $60s per square foot.

  • Day 2, April 5, 2014: Keynote Speaker – 2:00-2:45 P.M
    15th Annual International Symposium on Online Journalism Day 2, April 5, 2014: Keynote Speaker – 2:00-2:45 p.m. The Untold Story: Why We Should Be Optimistic About Journalism Chair: Evan Smith, CEO and Executive Editor at Texas Tribune Keynote Speaker: Martin Baron, Executive Editor at The Washington Post Q & A: Evan Smith and Martin Baron Evan Smith: Professor, thank you, I’m Evan Smith. I am indeed the Editor- in-Chief and CEO of the Texas Tribune. After this morning, I’m actually happier to say that I’m the person who gets to work with Emily Ramshaw every day. I was quite honored to see what she did today and was so proud from a distance. And I am indeed pleased to introduce and then lead a brief discussion with and then lead a conversation among the audience with Martin Baron, the Executive Editor of The Washington Post. Before I do, let me play a little mood music for you. Certainly, nobody in this room needs to be told that these are interesting times in the Chinese proverb ‘both a blessing and a curse’ sense for American journalism. We are all constantly, incessantly, inevitably, annoyingly wrestling with questions of commerce versus content. A word—content—that I know from talking to Marty before he hates, so I’m already getting into trouble with him. Commerce and content, free and paid, print and digital, vertical and horizontal. Questions about the changing competitive set, about the pace of innovation, about the value in relationship of individual and institutional brands.
