Recent Changes in Honolulu’s Media Landscape

October 12, 12:00pm - 1:00pm
Mānoa Campus, John A. Burns Hall, Room 4118 Add to Calendar

A lot is happening in the local media scene: Civil Beat has transitioned to a new nonprofit business model; China Daily USA has begun publishing a new weekly Honolulu edition; Hawai‘i Public Radio has a new head; and the Star-Advertiser / Midweek is going through staff cutbacks, just to name a few.

Join the East-West Center and the UH Manoa School of Communications Journalism Program for an informal roundtable discussion on what’s been going on lately in Honolulu media. New Hawai‘i Public Radio President José Fajardo will introduce his vision for the station; Civil Beat Editor Patti Epler will discuss the changes at the news website; Ji Tao, president of China Daily USA, will explain the paper’s entry into the Hawai‘i print market, and UH journalism scholars Ann Auman and Brett Oppegaard will assess impacts of recent Hawai‘i media changes.
