  • Summary

  • We meet the editorial team tasked with the challenge of creating the content that SCMP’s new digital platform plans to deliver in innovative ways to the world at large.  What kind of mind shift is necessary to move from an analog method of putting out news to a digital 24/7 “all news all the time” format? What are their concerns and how do they measure their efforts against that of the big boys in the news business around the world? How will they find other journalists needed to join the old hands at the editorial desk? What will entice them to come aboard and what will it take to make their integration successful?
