News and the New Media Landscape ~ Natural North Dakota ~ Global Neighbors Day

Wednesday, April 18 – The Knight Foundation recently released a report on local TV news and the new media landscape, a theme of increasing importance with social media creating new challenges. Here to discuss the report and to tell us about the Knight Foundation is Karen Rundlet, the foundation’s director of journalism. ~~~ In this week's Natural North Dakota, Chuck Lura has ideas for celebrating spring. ~~~ Bismarck Global Neighbors pairs New Americans with mentors willing to share language, culture and friendship, helping newcomers be more successful in their new Dakota community. Every year they have a big gala that features portraits of immigrants in traditional clothing in front of typically North Dakotan icons or landscapes. The event also features live music, ethnic food, and printed commentary from the subjects and the photographers. Joining us are Leah Hargrove and Alice Musumba.
