Public Relations:
The Master Now
Tuesday 2 December 2014
6.00pm - 7.15pm
8 John Adam Street, London, WC2N 6EZ
After a century in which public relations needed journalism (because journalists were the main gatekeepers of news and information), the internet and social media have now empowered the PR trade and freed it from subservience to the news media.
What does this mean for the future of journalism, and the future of the public interest?
This debate launches a new Reuters Institute report co-authored by John Lloyd and Laura Toogood:
Journalism and PR: News Media and Public Relations in the Digital Age.
Speakers to include: John Lloyd, senior research fellow, Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism and Ed Williams, CEO, Edelman
Chair: Matthew Taylor, RSA Chief Executive
Venue: RSA Great Room auditorium
In association with the Reuters Institute for the Study of Journalism
