Students Challenged to “Disrupt the News.”

TVNewsCheck will partner with the Broadcast Education Association (BEA) in sponsoring a “Disrupt the News” challenge to uncover unique ideas for reinventing local broadcast news to attract new viewers, particularly younger ones.

The high-visibility challenge will feature student journalists — or teams of them — competing to produce the best alternative local news content that that can be integrated with TV stations’ usual linear mix of entertainment, advertising and promotion.
