John Proffitt: IMA at an Impasse
John Proffitt has posted a great piece assessing last week’s Public Media Conference from the 50,000 foot level.
In my (current) view, IMA appears to be at an impasse. We seem to have reached a point where integrated media advocacy has given out, where recommendations and demonstrations fail to move our organizations to meaningful action.
Check it out, as well as the comments, including some smart thinking from Rob Paterson.
Todd, you are too kind! I’m hoping a few of us — those of us blogging, sharing ideas — can continue to wrestle with these issues collaboratively online. I’m delighted to participate.
I’d love to hear more of your thoughts on these issues, of course. But I know you’re really busy with your own transitional situation right now, too. Perhaps you can expound upon the ideas/strategies that you hope to bring to the PRP in Louisville as you go along. More stations need folks like you to help reshape their thinking, their approaches, their mindsets.
