Increasingly, the mainstream media monitors the social media for story ideas, information that might not be obtained from any other source and trends. Of course, non-profits also use social media to "push" their stories out onto the mainstream. On Thursday, April 12th the Thompson Reuters news service is sponsoring a free webinar on "How Journalists Use Social Media To Uncover Today's Stories."

The webinar will feature working journalists giving tips on how they use effective social media. Information about the webinar and registration information are listed below.
