On October 16, Colombian journalist Rafael Moreno was murdered. What his killers did not know was that he had protected his information by sharing it with @FbdnStories. 30 journalists continued his work for 6 months. Revelations this Tuesday #RafaelProject

@Bjornanilsson @SavLocal As a Swiss, the most offensive thing is that the flag is not square. It's supposed to be square!!! 🙃

@SavLocal Strangly enough. This makes me slightly more upset than if they would've burnt an actual Swedish flag. Though I'm guessing it upsets the Swiss more. C'est la vie...

Here are @chaniguyot's tips for extreme collaboration between newsrooms #WNMC21

Philosophy of Ubuntu (I am because we are) adopted by @chaniguyot and @redaccioncomar. Through extreme collaboration with other, sometimes cross-border, newsrooms, get reach, diverse voices and can tackle journalism projects they might otherwise not get to. #WNMC21

During #WNMC21, WSJ's Editor-in-Chief @murraymatt shared how the paper is working on its own trust metrics. WAN-IFRA just published a report on tools for news organisations to build trust among audiences and the public (free for WAN-IFRA Members): wan-ifra.org/insight/report…

#FacebookFiles provided big lessons in true digital publishing for Wall Street Journal newsroom. To make an impact and ensure cumulative effect, they published five stories a day, plus podcasts. A team of 40-50 worked on visuals/project. @MattMurray #WNMC21

We are always trying to ask ourselves what's going to be our unique contribution to journalism, what will differentiate us from others and how will that help us gain subscribers and build habit, says @murraymatt, the WSJ's Editor-in-Chief #WNMC21

Starting now! My privilege to be moderating a #WNMC21 session with @murraymatt @alisongow @Fedecherubini @chaniguyot all taking about different aspects of newsroom innovation, collaboration and adaptation. Can’t wait!
