How Do Local Journalists Use Social Media and What Do They Need from PR Pros? 

It’s a new age for PR pros, journalists and editors. Social media enables us to communicate more quickly, relevantly than ever before, and those mediums offer new opportunities for us to become trusted sources.   But how do you appropriately forge a relationship via social media? What about pitches? Is a well-written alert or news release still necessary? Should you bring video, photography, links along with the story? What are editors and reporters looking for? Do they actively seek sources via social media that they don’t in other forums? Which social media outlets do they use? What’s on their wish list?  

Special Note: Two lucky meeting attendees will win a pair of round-trip tickets on AirTran Airways courtesy of AirTran!

For more information and to register by March 22, 2010.
