Unearthing OUR Story: The Role of the Local Newspaper in the Community

What is the value of a community newspaper? Are print news and careers in journalism a thing of the past? What happens to communities that become “information deserts”?

Eric Cravey, editor of three West Virginia–based newspapers, including the Times-West Virginian, will share insights and lead a discussion on the historical and evolving role of the local newspaper in the community.
