The New Decade: The New Media Experience
Brian Stelter, Chief Media Correspondent, Reliable Sources Anchor, CNN
So much about media is changing in this digital and social media age, all shaped and reshaped by big tech. There is tremendous disruption with platforms popping up and new brands being born at a feverish pace. With it comes all the new content in the stream. Both news and nonsense reaching us at the speed of light. The challenge is how do humans use news rather than being used by it. Taking advantage of the impact of social media to build trust and spread truth has led to some of the most positive trends emerging in the new decade.
