June 2017 Luncheon
“Cut through the Clutter. Get Noticed and Be Heard!”
Wednesday, June 14 – GFW PRSA June Luncheon
Sponsored By: Frasch Office Supply
Join us Wednesday, June 14, for the Greater Fort Worth Chapter of PRSA luncheon at the City Club of Fort Worth in downtown, where a panel of DFW’s top journalists will offer insights on cutting through the clutter to make your pitches heard.
The panel will also go into the “sausage-making” side of news planning, so you can see why your story pitch may make a morning cut, but doesn’t make it to air. Additionally, the panel will address new uses of social media and how you can utilize these news outlets’ websites and new media platforms to generate attention.
The panel will be driven, for the most part, by YOUR questions. Think about what you want to know and come prepared.
Panelists:
John McCaa, WFAA-TV Channel 8 anchor
Brandon Todd, FOX 4 reporter/anchor
Alexandra Myers Russell, NBC 5 assignment editor
Freda Ross, WBAP/KLIF news director
Deanna Boyd, Fort Worth Star-Telegram reporter
Moderator:
Charlie Hodges, GFW PRSA chapter member, owner of Charlie Hodges Media
Charlie works both sides of the fence through his company and also as a Sunday morning anchor and reporter at the CBS Radio properties TSN and KRLD NewsRadio 1080.
