Digital Skills – Week 1 
Real-time reporting exercise
What we’re doing 
• Simulating real-world conditions 
• Using common tools 
• Learning how to use what you have produced 
to turn out a story under deadline
So why real-time reporting? 
• The equivalent of 
the old-time “News 
Flash!” – gives 
immediacy to the 
story
So why real-time reporting? 
• Increasing consumption 
of our news product on 
mobile devices 
• Use as “Second Screen” 
during live televised 
events
So why real-time reporting? 
• Gives audience a chance to respond (via Replies, ReTweets, 
Shares, Comments, sending reporters questions or their own 
materials) 
• Drives traffic from the real-time account to the final story and 
analysis 
• Can really boost reporter’s social-media profile 
• Gives reporters a way to quickly turn notes into stories
Tools for real-time reporting 
• Storify 
• Twitter 
• CoverItLive 
• 24LiveBlog 
• Google+ Hangouts 
• Facebook
