Watchdog Workshop
Lexington, Ky. — Jan. 22, 2010
Hosted by Kentucky Press Association
IRE is bringing its highly rated Better Watchdog Workshop to Lexington, Ky., in conjunction with Kentucky Press Association's 2010 Winter Convention.
We'll offer several of our core sessions that will improve your ability to find information on the Web quickly, point you to key documents that will help you produce quick-hit enterprise stories and give you tips on the best approaches when conducting interviews or developing sources.
In addition, this workshop will give you tips on how to bulletproof stories, how to deal with freedom of information laws and public records, and useful Web sites and strategies for using Internet tools such as wikis, blogs, robots and RSS feeds.
These sessions are designed for reporters, editors and producers from small, midsize and large publications and TV stations and Web-only news sites and news blogs. Join IRE’s experienced trainers and a group of veteran reporters for our Better Watchdog Workshop Jan. 22.
