Webinar and resources: How to manage your local news business in the face of a pandemic

On Friday, April 3 we hosted a 60-minute Zoom call, “How to manage your local news business in the face of a pandemic,” led by media consultants Tim Griggs and Ryan Tuck. We wrote about three takeaways from the webinar, and Nieman Lab published this summary.

In this webinar you’ll learn about:

• Business scenario planning
• How to understand your financial standing
• Expense controls and revenue levers
• How to take advantage of the audience opportunity
• Inspiration from other local news publishers
