A social (media) setting



A journalist has to be grounded in tradition but willing to step up at storytime. In this case, being platform-nimble. Journalism can be practiced within the tactile grip of a newspaper, the boundless vehicle that is the web and the short blurb of 140 characters. That's where this post comes in. I was honored to join WTHR (Channel 13) meteorologist Nicole Misencik on state at the studios of WFYI in Indianapolis to deliver a talk about Twitter for the Indy Social Media Breakfast. It was a real treat to talk about tweets. Here is the video replay of the chat on UStream.
