CONFERENCE PROGRAMME | Specialist Media Show

Sometimes the real inspiration comes from well outside your industry: the story of how another business tackled your problem is the key that unlocks a new idea for your own media business. Next month at the Specialist Media Show, on 24 May, we’ve put together a varied programme of free workshops, expert sessions and demos, sharing new tech innovations, wide-ranging case studies and real-world tips. Whatever your burning question, we’re sure you’ll find an answer. Register for the show and you’ll be able to reserve your workshop places, freeing up your time on the day to soak up some new ideas and experiences, rather than standing in queues. And bring your team so you don’t miss a crucial session.

mySociety Data Day

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dDBmTHRaYk5kSFNra0tIMUVqcEpPU0E6MQ mySociety Data Day mySociety is the organisation behind such websites as WhatDoTheyKnow, TheyWorkForYou, FixMyStreet and FixMyTransport. Each of these sites generates a large amount of potentially newsworthy data every day. Now we'd like to invite anyone with an interest in data journalism - or mySociety more generally - to join our team for a day's workshop in central London. We'll collaboratively discover the stories that will make the news - you tell us the data you'd like to see, and we'll do the hacking.
Over the weekend Fleet Street Blues has had a bee in its bonnet about the “pretence” of data journalism and Saturday’s Guardian front page: “ Half UK’s young black men out of work “. This, says FSB, is a lie that demonstrates the ”pretence” that “‘crunching the numbers’ is somehow an an abstract, scientific, mathematical task”. There are two problems with this: the first is that I’ve never heard a data journalist make this claim; and the second is that the ‘lie’ does not come from a data journalist (they generally don’t write headlines).
