Briefly Noted: TCA Editor on Blogging Panel

Category: Events, Shameless Horn-Tooting || By Wire Report

Communications students at Penn State's New Kensington Campus will host a panel discussion on new media this Thursday that explores the expanding trend of blogging by journalists and non-journalists.

Featured panelists will include Salena Zito of the Tribune-Review, Lindsay Patross of IheartPGH.com, Bram Reichbaum of The Pittsburgh Comet, and Jason Togyer of Tube City Almanac.

Coordinated by Penn State communications students Kayla Smail and Erika Watson and sponsored by the New Kensington campus' communications department, the discussion is the second in a three-part series called ""Communications Futures 2010" that explores trends in marketing, journalism and advertising.

A Penn State spokeswoman says the panel will examine how blogging has been incorporated into traditional news media and public relations practices.

The series is designed to provide aspiring and current communications professionals with insight into current trends in communications fields.

The one-hour discussion begins at 5 p.m. and will be followed by an informal reception. Both are free and open to the public.

For more information, call Smail at (724) 541-7568 or Watson at (724) 681-9858.
