Martin Fletcher on the Media,
Storytelling and Writing

Instructor: Martin Fletcher 

January 13, 15, 17  |  1-3 p.m.

The first class will review the changing media landscape - a personal view, going from general to specific. It would include a 20-minute insert from the owner of Mexico News Daily who would tell his story of how he is adapting his website for the changing media world. The second class will explore storytelling for television news and its impact on political/social perception. He will base this on his work as a foreign correspondent. The final class is about writing books. Martin will use his own work as examples of how hard it is and how rewarding. He may bring in another local author for 20 minutes to give another perspective.

Each lecture will be about 90 minutes leaving 30 minutes for Question & Answer Discussion.
