DESCRIPTION:
How do jazz and other music journalists decide who and what to cover? How do you get their attention if you are a musician or music promoter or producer? In this panel, presented by the Jazz Journalists Association at the 2014 Jazz Connect Conference in New York City, Monifa Brown (WBGO Radio); Evan Haga (JazzTimes); J. Michael Harrison (WRTI Radio) Hank Shteamer (TimeOut New York) --key jazz media "gatekeepers"-- talked about how they choose what musicians and events to feature in their limited print space and air time and answered audience questions. Moderated by JJA President Howard Mandel.
