The Refresh the Press Series
While working as an associate editor for North Carolina News Daily, I had the rare chance to conceive and write a months-long series on journalism in the twenty-first century. My editor-in-chief had pointed out the need for online news articles that discussed online news as an evolving, unfamiliar landscape. From there, I chose the name, the subjects, and the sources.
The Refresh the Press series, by the end, lasted eight months and covered some of the most pressing issues saturating today's journalists: the loss of local papers, the proliferation of online misinformation, the complications of media bias, and others. I'm proud to have written these features, because they plumbed pressing societal concerns and exposed me to some of the leading experts of the media industry. And though the series ended with my position at the company, its articles remain as windows into the present (and future) of journalism.
