"Fund My Media"
2009 ONA Pre-Conference Workshop

Thursday, Oct. 1, 2009
9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
ONA Conference, San Francisco

Funded by the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation.

The digital streets of America are rife with journalists looking to practice their craft and their passion outside the structures of a traditional, brand-name newsroom. This daylong workshop will be full of practical advice -- and cautionary tales -- for those thinking about striking out on their own. Covered will be starting a site from scratch, looking for funding, making the choice about nonprofit or ad-driven models and how to define success.
