Evernote... he's my kind of guy! Back to the topic at-hand. Who here still watches the news on TV? Who gets their news from the internet? From mobile apps? From Twitter? All of the above?I'd like to know from Patrick:- Many of us find out about the news via Twitter (or another social channel). How is regular TV news competing against social media? What are traditional news channels doing to embrace social channels and not kill their "viewership" on regular TV? Does it matter?- How are you measuring success? Are there metrics that you are using to prove (if you still have to) that social platforms are working FOR traditional news outlets?- Are you hiring for the summer? Graduating college seniors want to know.Tune in on Wednesday May 23 at the Edmunds.com headquarters and listen to what Patrick has to say about my questions AND OTHER QUESTIONS BY YOU!
