ICYMI: Newsroom Innovators To Learn From In ’22
Newsroom Innovators is a monthly series from TVNewsCheck exploring novel ideas from across the news ecosystem to inspire fresh thinking on news storytelling and the technology that can improve it.
As you rest and reset over the holidays, highlights from the past year’s innovators may spark some new ideas to bring to your newsroom in 2022.
NBC News has honed its voice on TikTok, where Meg Ludemann, its de facto anchor there, aims for the persona of “your smart friend who’s telling you what’s going on.” She has shown an uncanny instinct for finding the right native voice and trending elements on the platform, where NBC News has been among the few news outlets to venture.
KBLR, the Las Vegas NBCUniversal Telemundo station, launched Dale Play, a digital and streaming-only, mini-newscast that offers a fast-moving, dance track-powered take on headlines for the time-starved viewer.
BRAND CONNECTIONS
Al Jazeera’s digital-only Between Us series uses animation and illustration to mine the human story behind reporters’ experiences of major news events.

Graham’s WKMG in Orlando also helped viewers navigate state and federal agencies to connect with their COVID-related unemployment benefits via practical, utility-minded segments that have aided in the delivery of $1.5 million in benefits to Florida residents.
Mike Little, a veteran MMJ at NBCUniversal Local’s KNSD in San Diego, shows how he’s become a maestro of finding the magical in the quotidian in day turn stories that always find new vantage points from which to see and elevate his subjects.

Interesting to see the San Ramon Valley Unified School District’s commitment to transparency and improvement through the thorough review of student assessment results. The willingness to admit a slight decrease in CAASPP scores, specifically in English and Language Arts, speaks volumes about the district’s dedication to assessing its educational performance. As a student, I always strive to improve my academic performance, so I turn to https://www.quora.com/Is-EduBirdie-legit to get some answers and see if I can rely on students for services. The proactive approach challenges certain high schools. I’m happy to witness how the board discusses and strategizes future actions to uplift overall student success rates.
