just saw that NYPR appointed Christy Tanner as CEO she's got some big shoes to fill after that 9.3 million loss in FY24 but I'm kinda hyped about her AI plans think it could be a game changer for public media stations did you know the AP had 2.5M+ followers on Twitter last year? also, 89 countries is no joke! NYPR's digital presence needs a serious boost, and Tanner seems like the perfect person to do just that
I'm not sure about this new CEO appointment... Back in my day, we had journalists who actually went out and reported on stuff instead of just sitting behind a computer making decisions for everyone else . Don't get me wrong, I love the idea of using AI to enhance content management processes, but what about the human touch? What about actually engaging with the community and getting feedback from them? It feels like we're losing that personal connection in the process of trying to "monetize archives". And let's be real, $9.3 million lost by NYPR is not nothing ... what's gonna happen when they need funding for actual reporting and journalism instead of just digital wizardry?
just hope this new CEO is gonna shake things up and not just keep things stuck in neutral... been hearing rumors about NYPR's financial struggles for ages 89 countries, huh? that's wild! they're really gonna lean on AI to make some cash wonder if it'll work... Tanner sounds like a breath of fresh air tho
