Panel: ‘The Changing Media Landscape’

Where: Columbia Graduate School of Journalism, Lecture Hall, third floor; 116th Street and Broadway, New York (see map)
Who:
- Josh Cohen, business product manager, Google News
- Hossein “Hoder” Derakhshan, an Iranian-born blogger, journalist, and Internet activist
- Jonathan Dube, director of digital programming, CBC News
- Andrew Lih, author of a new book on Wikipedia and expert on Chinese media
- Mindy McAdams, new media education pioneer and professor at University of Florida
- Michael Rogers, resident futurist at The New York Times

No RSVP required. No charge. Open to the public. Reception from 6:30 to 7 p.m.
Update (Nov. 15): Archived video of the panel here.
Would love to attend and contribute … but how? webcast?
November 6, 2007 at 7:41 amTo my knowledge, there is no Webcast. The Web page from Columbia has almost no information on it. Maybe this week they will add something, but I have no control over that.
November 6, 2007 at 11:44 amOK, got that. i’ll contact Sree Sreenivasan and see what the latest is …
November 6, 2007 at 7:57 pmMindy– Were I in NY, I’d try to make it. I’m curious if you can quiz Josh about Google News and the “First Click Free” concept, which allows readers to end-run around paywalls. I covered this in Part 5 of my series on TimesSelect that I mentioned to the ONA list today.
November 6, 2007 at 9:01 pmMindy– I missed the talk. Did you get a chance to ask Josh Cohen the question I had? Thanks, Jon
November 18, 2007 at 1:52 pmI have not had time to read up on the click thing, Jon. Too much other stuff to do.
