@newsleader What would you say are the essential skills of a multi-media journalist?
@MaddyBriggs organisation is key, communication with different platforms, good planning
@blakeyblogs time management, grasp of technology, efficiency, creative use of material over different platforms

@alexwalters CMS proficiency, a little audio/video editing, social networking presence, adaptability to new tech and traditional skills.
@brettsr in addition to whats been said, thinking about how to get the story beyond your own outlet.
@journotutor Great story telling ability. Good contacts, scepticism, willingness to check and check again, technological literacy
@ jamescridland Are you claiming that there shd be any other type of journalist other than a 'multi-media' one?

Meet @RadioKate

“ I know social media isn't traditionally a "platform", but I think that it is fast becoming one. I know people think that Twitter is just a matter of 140 characters, but used well it is a very powerful tool and I've been building some great connections through it...So in terms of skills, well, I'm a radio producer and journalist - and I've used those skills on-air and online to produce content, but I'm also a communicator, and that is the main skill I've been using in social media. It's about the connections, the trust, the engagement with people.” @RadioKate
