Ideas I’m developing
Traditional news models were built for a different media era.
I’m developing a set of working ideas on what comes next.
That includes modular content, streaming strategy, AI-enabled workflows, transformation leadership, and the operating models modern journalism needs now.
These are ideas in development — not finished published essays.
Working theses
A few ideas I’m actively developing into longer pieces on newsroom transformation, modular content, streaming strategy, and responsible AI adoption.
AI adoption in newsrooms has to start with the work, not the tool.
The value comes from the workflow around it: where AI enters, who reviews it, what standards apply, and what happens when it is wrong.
Forthcoming essay.
Reusable journalism requires more than clipping, repackaging, or platform afterthoughts. Modularity has to be designed from the beginning.

Editorial accountability has to be designed into AI-enabled systems through review points, standards, escalation paths, ownership, and context.
Forthcoming essay.
Streaming news needs programming logic: how live, taped, modular, evergreen, local, national, breaking, and utility content work together across audience moments.
Forthcoming essay.
Workflow chaos often reflects a deeper mismatch between the operating model newsrooms inherited and the media environment they now have to serve.
Forthcoming essay.
Idea lanes
AI is useful only when it is governed, reviewed, and designed around real editorial needs.
Strong stories need formats, standards, shelf-life rules, and distribution logic that help them travel.
Programming, pacing, reuse, freshness, and platform behavior matter as much as volume.
The best transformation work makes teams less confused, not more impressed.
More coming soon
I’m using this space to develop sharper thinking on journalism, AI, content systems, and the operating models that help good work go further.
