This is the third\u00a0in a series of blog posts to help you decipher each program track at ONA15. You can sort our schedule by your own favorite track by clicking on any of the gray boxes on the <\/i>main session page<\/i><\/a>. You can find my breakdown of our Audience Engagement + Impact track here<\/a>, and on our Developer Tools + Tech track here<\/a>.<\/i><\/p>\n There are so many great sessions at ONA15, it can be difficult to decide which to attend! Here we’ll preview sessions specific to the Revenue + Ethics Track<\/a>\u00a0to help guide you\u00a0in choosing your\u00a0discussions. And don’t forget, for every track we’ll be hosting Table Talks<\/a>, an open forum for discussing\u00a0solutions to a variety of challenges in your area of interest or expertise.<\/p>\n Revenue continues to be a critical issue for newsrooms around the world.\u00a0A few of our sessions are geared toward what’s working right now. First, we’ll host The Revenue Review: Memberships, Advertising and Events<\/a>,\u00a0a look at the top three revenue streams for many\u00a0news organizations. Our high-powered, energetic presenters —\u00a0Joy Robins of Quartz<\/a> and \u00a0Evan Smith of The Texas Tribune<\/a>\u00a0— will walk us through each. They’ll then\u00a0join moderator Kai Ryssdal<\/a>,\u00a0host of Marketplace, for a sit-down Q&A.<\/p>\n Another critical revenue stream, particularly for non-profits and start-ups, are the many philanthropic organizations supporting great journalism and innovative storytelling. Get an inside look at the decision-making process of top journalism foundations in Help Us Fund Your Work: Candid Advice from Funders Who Love You<\/a>. Reveal’s Meghann Farnsworth<\/a> and The Texas Tribune’s Emily Ramshaw<\/a>\u00a0will act as hosts and moderators, ensuring a lively Q&A with participating funders. They’ll be joined by a dynamite crew:<\/p>\n And if you’re feeling entrepreneurial, like you might want to strike out on your own with that big idea, you can hear lessons learned from a number of terrific start-ups, and have the chance to sit down with their leaders for an intimate mini-mentorship Q&A in Solving For News: Real World Lessons From News Start-Ups<\/a>.\u00a0You’ll hear from:<\/p>\n Like any business, news organizations are always looking for additional revenue streams. We’ll take a close look at them throughout ONA15, starting with\u00a0Rappler Founder and CEO Maria Ressa<\/a> in Journalism’s New Role in the Crowd Economy<\/a>. Maria will explore how the advent of crowdfunding\u00a0and\u00a0social participating in news intertwine to create a invested news community … both figuratively and literally.<\/p>\n We’ll also go beyond memberships, advertising and events to examine Revenue Streams Beyond The Big Three<\/a>. We’ll hear about crowdfunding, finding new audiences and the value of predictive analytics and data stores from Beacon’s Keren Goldschlager<\/a>, Time’s Charo Henr\u00edquez<\/a>, Predictablely’s Yao Huang<\/a>\u00a0and Pro Publica’s Scott Klein<\/a>.<\/p>\n Questions regarding digital ethics continue to be one of the most discussed issues in newsrooms. We’re pleased to say our Build Your Own Ethics Code<\/a> will be ready for\u00a0a beta release at ONA15, and will be part of an interactive ethics conversation led by\u00a0Tom Kent of the Associated Press<\/a>, Abe Kwok of The Arizona Republic<\/a>, Laura Wides-Mu\u00f1oz of Fusion<\/a>, and Dr. Wendy Wyatt of the University of St. Thomas<\/a>.<\/p>\n We’re also examining the impact of the\u00a0bombardment of graphic\u00a0visuals from crime scenes, civil unrest and the battlefield on social news-gatherers. In\u00a0Blood on the Screen: Vicarious Trauma as Social Newsgatherers Watch the Unwatchable<\/a>, SAM’s Fergus Bell<\/a>, Reported.ly’s P. Kim Bui<\/a>, AP’s Eric Carvin<\/a> and the\u00a0Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma’s\u00a0Bruce Shapiro<\/a>\u00a0will discuss ideas for what\u00a0newsrooms can do to better support those sorting through the flow of social media.<\/p>\n And last but not least, we’ll host our perennial discussion of\u00a0all things legal in The Legal Panel<\/a>, with practicing attorneys Gregg Leslie<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0Karlene Groller<\/a>. They’ll review a few high-profile topics from the past year, and answer your questions about a variety of aspects of newsroom law.<\/p>\n We hope you’ll have a chance to explore these sessions and many others, and use our amazing networking opportunities to meet colleagues who share your passions and interests.<\/p>\n Stay tuned for our next post, exploring the Audio, Video + Photo\u00a0Track.
