Part Two: Rafat Ali, Publisher and Editor of paidContent.org, moderates a panel including Paul Berry, CTO of Huffington Post; Eric Carvin, Social Networks and News Environment Editor of Associated Press; Cynthia Collins, Director of Digital Marketing for The New York Times, and Craig Engler, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Syfy Digital.

Paul Berry speaks to whether a brand can have ‘too much’ of a social media presence.  He explains HuffPost Social News, and the Post’s editorial goal of finding the ‘great’ tweets about certain topics through hyper-efficient editors and automated filters.  The panel discusses what guidelines should apply as journalists continue to embrace social media as a mode of communication and as a source of information.
