The spotlight turned on our local legacy and new media here in Erie on Thursday. We opened the conversation with Brian Sheridan, Chairman of the Communications Department at Mercyhurst University. Then from local television it was Scott Bremner, Assignment Editor from JET/Fox/YourErie.com and Tim Mello, News Director of Erie News Now (WICU/WSEE). Joel Natalie went on-location to the Erie Times-News Fishbowl conference room to discuss the local newspaper business with Executive Editor Doug Oathout, Court Reporter Madeleine O’Neill, and Online Editor Matt Martin. Finally, we were joined by the Managing Editor of the Erie Reader, Nick Warren.
