Lewis Dvorkin, the chief product officer at Forbes, writes Tuesday about how its newsroom operates much differently than newsrooms of the past by using data and software to influence its coverage decisions.
“Here are the five real-time newsroom screens that have become critical to The New Real-Time Newsroom.
“1) Making the newsroom social. News today is about voices — we have 1,000 of them publishing on our platform. Why shouldn’t the newsroom discussion be filled with voices, too? Now, our editors, reporters and contributors can join the newsroom debate through Campfire, a real-time tool that fosters team collaboration. In what amounts to continuous group chat, skilled journalists and topic experts can trade story ideas with one another; upload links and documents; suggest, hand out and discuss story assignments; and be part of the general news flow. The discussion has a realness to it, much like the late-night bar room chats journalists use to debate stories and prepare for the next day.”
