Crossmedia Newsrooms

IFRANewsplex and CCI Europe are supporters of the project "crossmedia newsrooms" carried out by a group of 19 online journalism students from the University of Applied Sciences in Darmstadt, Germany. The aim of the project is to research, analyse and describe new models of newsroom management and organization in Germany. The site features interviews, galleries and videos from DIE WELT, Handelsblatt, HDA, Kölner Stadtanzeiger and Südkurier. The site is currently only available in German. An English edition will be provided soon.
