Nov 12 2009 - The Future of Print Media

The Triangle Press Club announces its inaugural meeting schedule for Thursday, November 12th from 7pm to 9pm in the special events room at the TirNaNog Irish Pub in downtown Raleigh.

Triangle Press Club is open and free to any professional member of the media in the Wake, Durham or Orange County area including those in print, TV, radio, and new media.

For the first hour, we will be hosting a special panel discussion with experts in the field to discuss the important topic of "The Future Of Print Media."

The event is free to those qualified working journalism professionals but also members of the general public may attend for $40. If you register for this event and you are not a working journalist, then you will be sent an electronic invoice where you can pay for your ticket in advance. Journalism students are also invited to attend at no charge if they register in advance at this website.

Confirmed speakers include the following:

John Drescher, editor of the News & Observer
Sougata Mukherjee, editor of the Triangle Business Journal
Johnathan Cox, of Lulu.com "print on demand" website

Randall Gregg, editor of the Raleigh Telegram
Other special invited guests include Bernie Reeves, publisher of Metro Magazine and formerly, The Spectator.

NETWORKING: The second hour will be a general networking session (we will have plenty of free food and drink specials) so that members of the media who might not ordinarily be able to meet can do so.

PLEASE RSVP if you are planning to attend, so we can plan for food. There is limited space so RSVP today!

If you have any questions about the event, please call Randall Gregg at 919-760-3110 or email us at raleightelegram@yahoo.com.
