CAREER/LIFE UPDATE: I'm excited to announce that I'm taking my talents, not to Cleveland (again), but to the great city of Atlanta as the news director of 11Alive. Thank you, Carol Fowler, Kristie Gonzales, and Ellen Crooke for this wonderful opportunity. I can't wait to join the amazing #11Alive team. For those who weren't aware, I've lived in Atlanta twice before, once in grade school and again as a news intern in college. I've been blessed to work in my hometown and at a station that truly means the world to me ABC24 WATN. So this wasn't an easy decision. I'll talk more about my time in Memphis in a later post. But for now, Atlanta look out, I'm heading your way next month. #TeamTEGNA #11Alive #ABC24 #Atlanta #Memphis #Growth #Development #Leadership https://lnkd.in/ejmJ44Ah

Concerning: According to this piece, these 20 national #media outlets/orgs have had significant #layoffs or folded in the last year: The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, Sports Illustrated, ABC News, NBC News, CNN, CBS News, NPR, Pitchfork, TIME, Condé Nast, BuzzFeed, News Corp, National Geographic, Vox Media, VICE Media, Popular Science, ESPN and Yahoo News. The reasons are varied, but “The pain is particularly pronounced at the community level. An average of five local #newspapers are closing every two weeks, according to Northwestern University Medill School, with more than half of all American counties now so-called news deserts with limited access to news about their hometowns. Of 1,100 #publicradio stations and affiliates, only about one in five is producing local #journalism.” And apparently the bright spot is local #broadcastnews: “Local TV news has a lot going for it,” he said. “Virtually every market of any size has three to four competing #newsrooms, which is a stark contrast to the local newspaper, where a market is lucky to have one. And if they do, it’s generally a shadow of its former self.” A Gallup and Knight Foundation survey in 2022 found that Americans placed far more trust in local news sources than national media organizations.” Via Michael G., John Koblin, Benjamin Mullin and Katie Robertson in The New York Times. #LegacyMedia #LocalNews #Radio #magazines #broadcastjournalism #printjournalism #TVNews #NationalNews #digitalmedia #communications
