[Journalists] some advice

I'm on both twitter and facebook. I'm more of a facebook person. I know a
lot of people who post video, and picture content on their facebook, and
twitter accounts. I am just concerned with the possibility of having to
answer ways to get around those issues or finding ways to resolve those
issues.

Hello Ann,

I work for a newspaper where we post a lot of online content.
I'm a reporter at the Star-Telegram, and if I am out in the field, I will
usually e-mail information back to the editors who will post it online.
Also, if need be, I can post to our various blogs including politics,
weather and so forth.
What experience do you have with online content? Are you on Twitter and do
you have a Facebook account? As you can imagine, we also post a lot of
Twittter and Facebook information as well.

I don't think it's terribly difficult to post online content especially when
we have an online desk to help with that purpose.

Hello everyone,

I'm currently applying for jobs in the journalism field. As you all know, a
lot of the newspapers are going online. I would like to know how to deal
with online media content such as having to post vidieo content on the
company's website, along with other graphical meterials. I want to give the
person who is interviewing me, every insentive to hire me without question,
regardless of my blindness. 

 

Any advice would be appreciated. This is something I've wanted to do, and I
don't want to be held back.

 

Thanks,

Ann
