How mobile is changing news gathering and delivery

PART 1: Mobile-first delivery

Executives from Journal Broadcast Group, Cox Media and Raycom Media explain how they are using the mobile platform to make their news operations more social and engaging for audience members.

PART 2: Mobile-first reporting
Some newsrooms are using iPhones to capture video. Others are replacing live trucks with live backpack units. And many stations also are taking advantage of the mobile audience and increasing the use of user-generated content. These and other mobile approaches are becoming a standard part of the newsgathering process.
