How To Get On TV and Radio Thursday, Sept 17

Television and radio appearances can broaden the reach of a print story, and advance the careers of the reporters who wrote them. But if your publication doesn't have a bevy of publicists to line up such appearances, it falls to you. It can be difficult to navigate such terrain.

On Thursday, Sept 17, from 6-8 p.m. in the Murrow Room, The National Press Club Journalism Institute's Professional Development Committee is offering a primer designed to explain how to get the attention of bookers as a subject matter expert, and stay on their list. The committee is also working on a follow-up panel on how to shine once you're on the air.

Betsy Fischer Martin of American University, formerly of NBC News, Amy Shuster of MSNBC and other panelists will offer up practical advice about getting on the other side of the camera and the microphone. Barbara Cochran, Curtis B. Hurley Chair for Public Affairs Journalism at the Missouri School of Journalism, and president of the NPCJI, will moderate.
