The Poynter 50 project celebrates significant journalistic milestones over the last half-century. In a recent discussion, co-creator Tom Jones expressed joy at the willingness of key figures, such as those involved with 'Serial' and Wolf Blitzer, to engage with the project. The initiative aims not just to recount past events but to explore their lasting impact on journalism's future. The team strives to generate meaningful conversations about how past actions shape current and future media landscapes, emphasizing a forward-thinking perspective on journalism rather than a nostalgic view.
I'll start: I have been really heartened by how many newsmakers have wanted to talk to us about these big moments.
We said that right from the start - when we came up with this idea, we didn't want it to be just a stroll down memory lane.
