Add an eventHow PBS and NPR Can Support Local Journalism
A session at SXSW Interactive 2011
Saturday 12th March, 2011
5:00pm to 6:00pm
As the digital revolution decimates traditional local news media, a variety of new organizations are emerging – fitfully – to fill the gaps. Some of their challenges, such as content creation and technology, are relatively easy to solve. But others – building an audience and finding sustainable revenues – are much harder. In this session, you’ll learn about current and upcoming experiments, partnerships and models – and how PBS, NPR and their member stations can support this new local-news ecosystem.
