NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Business Wire and Bulldog Reporter are partnering to present “Communicators Online Newsroom Practices,” a free webinar on February 28, 2012 featuring speakers from Bally Technologies, Ryder System and Securian Financial Group. The panel will discuss lessons learned while launching their organizations’ online newsrooms as well as results from the recent Bulldog Reporter/Business Wire Communicators Online Newsroom Survey.
Ibrey Woodall, Vice President of Web Communications Services will moderate the panel, which will feature Cindy Haas, Director, Corporate Communications, Ryder System; Maggie Jensen, APR, Media Relations Consultant, Securian Financial Group and Mike Trask, Manager of Corporate Communications, Bally Technologies.
The session will examine results and insights about challenges, usage and best practices for online newsrooms from the Bulldog Reporter/Business Wire Communicators Online Newsroom Practices Survey of nearly 500 communications professionals. The survey revealed increasing adoption of online newsroom technologies, relatively modest investments in maintaining newsrooms, active social media integration and frustration in keeping the newsroom updated.
Business Wire’s educational webinar series, launched in 2007, offers lively discussions and interactive learning from industry professionals, garnering four awards from the Society for New Communications Research.
