The Business of News
How do you get your organization’s story on the radio or television news or into the pages of the Business section? What is the Business editor looking for in a feature story? How can you build better relationships with reporters? What does television and radio need from you when covering a business story?

For the answers to these and other questions please join us for a professional development session designed to give communications professionals a better understanding of business journalism.
