How does something go viral?

Posted

Host Sherri Hope Culver and guests

It seems as though all of social media activity is centered on getting other people to see and “like” the posts we put online. The goal is to go viral, but there seems to be no rhyme or reason as to why something catches on. How does this change the way we market ourselves and businesses?

On a new episode of Media Inside Out, host Sherri Hope Culver will explore the common elements that attract us to this social media content and why with social media marketing experts Matthew Ray, Co-Founder and Creative Director of ChatterBlast; Ryan Olah, Talent Marketing and Communication Specialist at Comcast; Hannah Kurtz, Digital Strategist at Maven Communication.

Tune in to TUTV on Wednesday, October 12 at 12:30 and 8:30 p.m.

How can the history of communication help us today?

Posted

Host Sherri Hope Culver and guest Jason Steinhauer

Media literacy has become more and more relevant and meaningful as terms like fake news and alternative facts are being coined. In a new episode of Media Inside Out, host Sherri Hope Culver takes a step back from the radically changing view of facts and the media in our tumultuous times to examine the history of communication itself in an effort to see how we came to establish what is today being disrupted. Culver speaks with Jason Steinhauer, a public historian and the director of Lepage Center for History in the Public Interest, about the different ways to explore history communication and how it impacts our communication today.

Watch the premiere on TUTV this Wednesday, October 4 at 12:30 and 8:30 p.m.
