Mark Coughlan is one half (with Gavin Sheridan) of the team behind thestory.ie. The site is dedicated to sharing documents and information to promote transparency in public life and represents a new-media hybrid between traditional investigative journalism and crowd sourcing.
In this week’s Ask-a-Journalist we interviewed Stephen Conmy, a journalist who specialises in issues around PR and marketing. As editor of IMJ and now the Digital Times, Stephen has a birds eye view of how both PR and marketing have changed with the onset of digital media, as well as an eye on the future of where marketing communications is going.
