By Alison Cox, Vice President, CorporateI’ll start with a confession – in this always-on, always-connected, 140-character-or-less world, I’m still a fan of RSS for certain things. When it comes to PR and media news, I like having the content available to read at my convenience, without having to worry that I’ve missed something buried in my social feeds. So having said that, here’s what’s on my must-read list for communications pros:
• Richard Edelman’s 6 A.M. – Not just a blog about industry matters, our CEO also shares pictures from his travels and occasional personal stories.
• DiResta the Law – Tony DiResta, the Word of Mouth Marketing Association’s general counsel, provides insight and explains implications of FTC rulings and guideline changes for communications professionals.
• Romenesko – A collection of media industry news, commentary and criticism, this busy feed and Twitter handle (@romenesko) will keep you in-the-know about the business of media.
• Richard Prince’s Journal-isms – It’s online now, but it’s not a blog; he still calls it a column. Published three times a week, Journal-isms provides a round-up of hot topics in diversity news – everything from issues coverage by mainstream media to leadership and talent changes at national media outlets.
• Uncle Barky’s Above the Fold – Ed Bark’s site provides network show reviews, local Dallas/Fort Worth broadcast criticism and a Back Channels [link: http://www.unclebarky.com/back.html] section that spotlights relevant articles from his 26-year run as the Dallas Morning News’ TV critic. During sweeps months, he provides daily updates on overnight Nielsen numbers.
