Join us for a virtual panel discussion hosted by the Maryland-Delaware-DC (MDDC) Press Association and featuring editors from several of its member publications.

Dating back to 1908, MDDC is a membership organization consisting of all the daily and most of the non-daily newspapers in Maryland, Delaware and D.C. We’ll learn how MDDC supports its members through industry representation, resources, career opportunities and more. We’ll also meet three editors from news outlets serving a diverse readership across the Greater Baltimore region and discuss the best opportunities and tactics for securing earned media coverage.

Speakers include (more to be confirmed):

• Kevin Berrier, advertising director for MDDC Advertising Services
• Marcus Dieterle, managing editor, Baltimore Fishbowl
• Sameer Rao, editor, The Daily Record
• Rebecca Snyder, executive editor, MDDC Press Association (moderator)
