We live in interesting times and among today’s catalysts spurring excitement and concern are social media…for it, as a movement, is a great equalizer.
Now, here we are, challenged to rethink what we know and think we know in order to compete for relevance now and in the future. As we heard in Part 1 of (R)evolution, we are witnessing the impact of social media on journalism and understanding how news travels differently through social graphs.
In Part 2 of a three-part series with Kate Couric, anchor and managing editor of the CBS EVENING NEWS WITH KATIE COURIC, we examine how social media impact not only real-time journalism, but also how to protect the consequence of fact-first journalism amongst a new generation that Tweets first and asks questions later. We also explore the impact of new media on culture and society and how it influence who we are online as well as what we share and who we know.
Welcome to the (R)evolution, a new series that connects you to the people, trends, and ideas defining the future of business, marketing, and media.

thanks so much, Brian.
I am sitting here at the end of the semester, having just talked about the impact OF social media on public relations and growing use OF social media by public relations professionals and SO wishing I had seen this two weeks ago!
This series definitely will be an integral part of the discussion spring semester and onward. Excellent, Brian. Thanks for sharing your work!
Kirk. Thank you so very much. Greatly appreciated!

Not mentioned, yet important, in your interview: News Message & Sensation./Entertain., Network Control vs. News Message. Wish you would have delved into why reporting the precise truth to the Public is the last priority of a reporter; behind network, show director, stockholders…. Bottomline, what responsibility does a journalist have to tell the truth. Why don’t Journalism Schools require logic for graduation?
Superb job on this series Brian. I’ve pushed it out to a number of clients and students and Tweeted it out as well. Thanks so much!
I love the interview!
But about accuracy, well, that exactly the point with social media. News are just original and without any power filter.
Passion makes the difference
i wish i am the reporter to interview them lol
