The Press Conference

The Press Conference is where the press conferences--&, along with supporters of the 4th estate (& journalists, journalism, media & academia), investigates the impact of this medium as a media message--and what impact sunlight has on its designed ephemerality & our future. How this club started: http://bit.ly/CHJournalism And a running🧵on CH’s design, its impact on journalism & accountability—& the outsize impact its Suggested User List has on who does & does not have an audience here. http://bit.ly/CHThread If you are a journalist who has a blank bio &/or no social media listed & would like to join the Press Conference, please DM me (@dearsarah) on Twitter with a link to your work. (Before inviting folks to join, I verify that each person is a journalist—& yes, this is a pain/a ton of work—so it’d be rad to make it a few less steps.) And, please add other journalists! You can add them pressing + & searching your followers for “journalist” & “reporter”. If you recommend folks with a blank bio, please (save me some time &) attach a note about their work!
