About 'Getting Your News Noticed'
The Internet is transforming communications and the current
presidential election is no different. Today, candidates reach out to the
public via online debates, 24-hour news feeds, and social networking Web
sites. Similarly, these online tools offer the public new outlets to engage
in the political process and exercise greater influence over the candidates
and issues than ever before.
The impact of the Internet is not only reshaping elections, but it also
impacting how the media covers political campaigns and key events, such as
the Democratic National Convention, to be held in Denver this August.
Some of the topics that will be covered include:
-- Online convergence of politics and technology
-- Impact of the Internet on the news media coverage
-- Best practices in navigating online news sources
-- There will also be an opportunity to ask questions after the
discussion.
