Next meeting

Hi An early heads up about an event for the Digital Editors Network next month. Neil Benson, regional editorial director of Trinity Mirror, will be among the panelists considering the global impact of the local news business at the 7th Journalism Leaders Forum organised by the University of Central Lancashire’s Journalism department. I am sure the hyper-local project at the Gazette will feature in the discussion. The open event on Tuesday October 16th, which is the first of three planned for 2007-8, starts at 5:15pm with a networking reception in the foyer of the Greenbank Building. The 90-minute Forum begins at 6pm. We are also organising discussion sessions for earlier in the day for network members on hyper-local online journalism, how journalists can use blogs and video journalism. These sessions will be a chance to exchange ideas and raise problems with colleagues and university staff. Details are being finalised and I will send out further information next week. Please let me kno
