At a recent Social Media Club event in Richmond, Virginia, we caught up with local NBC television reporter Rachel DePompa and local political and news blogger John Sarvay.
The pair had just wrapped up a panel discussion on social media and the news. Although each provides coverage of overlapping spaces, they both had unique insights on gathering and reporting the news, as well as using social media to reach the public.
We even tackled the tense subject of bloggers' legitimacy as reporters as well as mainstream journalists' struggle to correctly and profitably employ social media.
Special thanks to Christopher Munton for camera/audio/editing work.
