Latest Club Podcast Starts Series on Social Media

Update-1, the Club's podcast, begins 2016 by focusing on social media.

They talk about BuzzFeed's progression as a journalistic entity, the diversity of news coverage that BuzzFeed and other news organizations provide, and the need for quality journalism regardless which social media platform is used for distribution.
