I’m in Toronto this week for the annual conference of the Online News Association. Ahead of the start of the sessions on Thursday, CBC is hosting a debate on The Future of the Future of News on October 17.
On the panel are Andrew Keen (Cult of the Amateur), Len Brody (NowPublic) and Rahaf Harfoush (Wikinomics researcher). As well as the debate, I’m proud to say that one of my students at the UBC School of Journalism, Catherine Rolfsen, has talked to Keen and Harfoush, for CBC’s Spark radio show, recorded last week.
The panel debate will be streamed live on cbc.ca/futureofnews on October 17, from 6.00 pm to 7:30 pm EST. The Spark discussion will be available as a podcast from 11.30am on Wednesday.
