“Death of the 4th Estate? A Look at New and Traditional Media and
What It Means for the Public Affairs Arena”
Moderated by Ray Gonzales, former Channel 5 KTLA Host
Featuring Panelists Joe Mathews, Ted Johnson and Ron Kaye
Traditional Media continues to be battered with cuts and layoffs and concerns arise over whether the surviving staffs can meet the
challenge of covering the dramatic stories of our times—healthcare, politics, the economy, the water crisis, etc.—or whether New Media is
filling the void. Join Coro for this special panel discussion with some local journalists and influencers. Hear from those in the trenches as
well as some who have made the transition.
