AUBURN — Award-winning journalist Dan Dinsmore will give a talk titled “Free Press and the Changing Landscape of Journalism in Maine” from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 28, at the Auburn Public Library, 49 Spring St.
With help from the Maine Humanities Council’s Democracy, Journalism, and the Informed Citizen program, the APL welcomes Dinsmore and his experience in covering Maine news as they explore the changing landscape of Maine media.
In the past, options for news were limited to the major networks, but with so many options and formats, it’s now easier than ever to stay on top of the news. Yet consumers still wonder where to turn.
An award-winning journalist with 25 years of media experience, Dinsmore’s prior professional work includes positions as an editor at newspapers in California, Wisconsin and Maine. During his time in Maine, Dinsmore was the assistant managing editor in charge of sports at the Portland Press Herald, portfolio diversification manager for Blethen Maine Newspapers and executive director at Maine Today. He has also spent time in business-to-business media as vice president of Media Operations for the Healthcare Informatics Management Systems Society.
