Episode 457: Poynter's Neil Brown Says Editing Isn't Discussed Enough
Manage episode 471341409 series 1012956
"What I was fortunate enough to get exposed to very early in my career, and I really believe is now the way to go, which is the nature of editing as thinking," says Poynter Institute president Neil Brown.
Neil has spent more than forty years as a reporter and editor, and he just wrapped up his tenure on the Pulitzer Prize Board. He's one of the more nimble minds in journalism and a champion of the editor/writer dynamic.
In this conversation, Neil riffs on
- Editing as thinking
- The late writing coach Don Murray
- How the front end is everything
- Respecting reader detection
- And Interviewing as a skill, among lots more great stuff.
