Media companies are encouraging their journalists to tweet with the objective of boosting readership, listenership and viewership, yet disciplining employees—sometimes severely—when management disapproves of a tweet. Where’s the line? What’s a toxic tweet? Is tweeting for the birds? Are media companies hypocritical or digitally savvy? Come hear our panel of experts from the worlds of social media, journalism, academia and law as they discuss these issues at the New York Newspaper Guild on Thursday, May 17, 2012. The panel will be preceded by a brief reception at 6:30 p.m., and will start at 7:00 p.m. sharp.
