The 29 McClatchy dailies will be launching over the next few months, a process that started with four of the California titles in May. We at Garcia Media are honored to have been a part of a project that truly rethinks how newsrooms operate, considers new strategies for storytelling across platforms, and develops new products for mobile, tablet, responsive web and print.
We worked closely with the McClatchy team, headed by Anders Gyllenhaal , vice president of news and Washington editor at McClatchy. This is how Anders summarized the project:
Technology has altered so much about the reading experience – from the pace of news, to how stories are best told, to the way people choose for themselves what’s newsworthy. It was time to find new approaches to explore how all of this applies to local news.
This week, The State and The Sun Review launched, and we invite you to take a look at what they have done:
