Episode description
On this episode of Sword and Pen, host Lori King speaks with journalism tool extraordinaire Mike Reilley, who just published his second book, The Journalist's Toolbox: A Guide to Digital Reporting and AI.
Reilley has made it his mission since 1996 to continuously stock his trademarked online Journalism Toolbox with every kind of tool, resource and training you can imagine, including AI-driven tools, video training and links.
If there's a tool out there, he's found it, or seeks to find it.
Listen as Reilley talks about:
- how military journalists can benefit
- the origin of the Journalist's Toolbox
- how many new AI tools are available each month and how many tools he deletes because they're dead
- the history of online journalism and how news orgs were wrong to cannibalize their print product with a free version of a digital product
