One professor quoted in this New York Times story says the journalists of the future will have to “invent their own jobs.” At Thursday afternoon’s Digital Journalism Job Summit, we’ll have a Google Hangout with three recent SMU alums who all are thriving as Web-empowered journalists:
- Sarah Acosta is an entertainment reporter, blogger and videographer for her hometown newspaper, the Corpus Christi Caller-Times.
- Elisabeth Brubaker is a production assistant for Piers Morgan Tonight at CNN in New York City.
- Marissa O’Connor is a programming coordinator for new media at E! Online in Los Angeles.
