Join the University of Florida College of Journalism and Communications on Wednesday, Nov. 12 at 7 p.m. in Gannett Auditorium in Weimer Hall for a conversation with Melissa Bell, co-founder of Vox Media.

We’ll discuss how Vox is leading a new wave of high-value digital journalism, the science of how we consume the news, and Bell’s perspective on the challenges and opportunities of creating a startup news space.

Bell’s talk, which is free and open to the public, is the second in a series of speakers brought to UF through The Innovators Series, a project that will bring six leaders in the information industries whose inventive outlooks have propelled them to the leading edge of data, mobile and community engagement. The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation is supporting the speaker series.
