We’re starting Season 5 off with a conversation on the future of news media, with Nic Newman, Senior Research Associate at Reuters Institute, University of Oxford.
A journalist and digital strategist, Nic played a key role in shaping the BBC’s internet services for over a decade and was a founding member of the BBC News Website. He led international coverage as World Editor and as Head of Product Development for BBC News helped introduce innovations such as blogs, podcasting and on-demand video. More recently he’s led digital teams, developing websites, mobile and interactive TV applications for news, sport, weather and local. Nic played an important part in the development of social media strategies and guidelines for the wider BBC.
At Reuters, he shares a breadth of research that unpacks the trends in news media consumption, evolving technology including AI, the impact of social-first and what this means for a younger news audience as we look ahead.
