Panel Discussion: The Death of Traditional Media?

27 Jan 2014

A new generation of reader is sourcing and consuming news via non-traditional platforms. As the relationship between the press and the web rapidly develops, questions continue to arise over the future of print, and the impact the Internet is having on quality journalism. "Is traditional media actually dying and does it matter?", is the question put to a panel of editors by George Brock, Head of Journalism, at City University in the UK. In this interesting panel hosted by the Frontline Club in London last week, editors weigh in on the topical issue of the future of the media.
