LSE Media Group - Networking Event with David Rowan Our event on Tuesday 3 February 2011 with guest speaker, David Rowan, editor of Wired UK, was the group's most popular networking event yet. David talked to an engrossed audience about what he had learned from creating a clickable, swipeable magazine. Showing the audience a series of videos and images, he shared fascinating insights and details on the economics, technology and design behind iPad Wired. Everyone had a copy of the latest edition of Wired magazine to take home.
The LSE Media Group will be holding a panel discussion in May on the learnings and implications from the media coverage of environmental events: the 2009 Copenhagen Climate Conference, the Cancun Climate Change Conference, and the BP oil spill crisis of last year. The panel will be discussing and debating the biases and censorship in reporting, relationship between the media and policy-making, and the role of the media in mobilising public opinion. Membership of the group is free to all alumni, and information on how to join is available on the LSE Media Group website.
