Journalism's Digital Transition: Unique Legal Challenges and Opportunities

Belinda Rawlins — Tue, 06 Apr 2010 17:42:40 +0000

The Berkman Center’s Citizen Media Law Project and Cyberlaw Clinic are pleased to announce a one-day symposium and CLE program to celebrate the launch of the Online Media Legal Network (OMLN). OMLN is a legal referral service that connects qualifying online journalism ventures and digital media creators with lawyers willing to provide legal services on a pro bono or reduced-fee basis. It supports promising ventures and innovative thinkers in online and digital media by providing access to legal help that would otherwise be unavailable.
Agenda

The program will bring together panels of academics, legal practitioners, and journalists. Topics include the legal issues arising from news aggregation and managing online communities, as well as the question of what comes next for journalism, and how the legal profession can assist (or hinder) journalism’s digital transition.
Registration

Cost for the conference is $275 ($225 if registration is received by March 31), which includes all CLE/course materials and lunch. A “sponsors dinner” will be held at the Harvard Faculty Club. Cost for the dinner is $150. A portion of the registration fee will go towards supporting the Citizen Media Law Project and the Online Media Legal Network.

Sponsors of the conference are entitled to a limited number of complimentary registrations to the conference and dinner. For information on becoming a sponsor, please contact Kimberley Isbell at kisbell [at] cyber.law.harvard.edu.

We also have reserved a limited number of free and reduced-fee registrations that will be made available to academics, students, and public interest attorneys. Please contact Kimberley Isbell at kisbell [at] cyber.law.harvard.edu to register.

The Politics Online Conference

Belinda Rawlins — Tue, 16 Mar 2010 11:54:53 +0000

A number of people have been asking me lately, “what can I get out of the conference?” It’s a great question, with a simple answer. If you work in any sector of politics or advocacy, the Politics Online Conference is going to show you how technology and the internet is being used to raise money, build relationships, cultivate contacts, build organizations, increase communication, and much more. In short, the conference will show you how you can use technology to be more effective and more efficient.
If you already work with state of the art tools, the Politics Online Conference will bring you together with your peers in DC, and with some of the brightest minds from New York, California, Texas and more.
We have two main goals for this conference. First, bring in the nation’s brightest new media practitioners to show and teach conference participants how to use new media to better their organizations and their skills. And second, to bring in innovative people from outside the beltway to infuse new ideas into the realm of politics and technology.
In order to make it easy for you to figure out where you fit in, we organized the conference in tracks that can be viewed here.
