Changing OC Media Landscape

OC World recently sponsored an event with OC Forum that brought together a group of diverse journalists to discuss the ever-changing media landscape of Orange County: Gustavo Arellano – reporter / columnist, Los Angeles Times; Ashley Alvarado – Vice President community engagement, LAist; Rick Reiff – editor-at-large, OC Business Journal; and Todd Harmonson – editor, Orange County Register. If indeed Orange County is one of the largest “news deserts” in the country, how do publishers and media companies continue to bring value back to their readers, viewers, and listeners? In this program, OC World also interviewed two members of the media community – Steve Churm, founding publisher of the now defunct OC Metro Magazine, and Richard Reisman, publisher of the Orange County Business Journal.

Dedicated to promoting excellence in journalism and media within Orange County, OC World Media Club will provide professional development, networking, advocacy, and community engagement opportunities to a wide range of media professionals. Its vision is to support the growth and diversity of media professionals and college students. Join OC World Media Club today, there is no cost to join! Stay tuned for updates and exciting events!
