What are some of the most important lessons you have learned working in the news industry?

News is more than just reporting what is happening. News is a record of the history of the community, and it helps make the community stronger and progress. It is the job of a newspaper to help develop the community and make it a better place for everyone.

What are your prediction­s for the future of news publishing?

Newspapers must adapt to the changing times. We must continue to provide accurate and important news events. However, for newspapers to continue to be successful, other products, such as magazines, podcasts, and other content types and channels, must be incorporat­ed into the news coverage.
