“News Matters” is a new documentary film that follows the desperate attempts by Colorado journalists and citizens to fight off hedge funds and disinformation to save journalism. It will premier later this month on Rocky Mountain PBS.
The panel, which starts at 7 p.m.Tuesday, is scheduled to include Greg Moore, former editor of The Denver Post who left rather than continue to cut staff again; Chuck Plunkett, former editorial page editor of The Denver Post who led an internal revolt; Larry Ryckman, editor-owner of The Colorado Sun, which he co-founded after leaving the Post; Dana Coffield, senior editor-owner of The Colorado Sun, which she co-founded after leaving the Post; Paul Cheung, Director of Journalism + Technology Innovation at Knight Foundation; Ken Doctor, CEO of Lookout Local and publisher of Newsonomics; and Brian Malone, filmmaker of “News Matters.”
