Terry Heaton, regarded by most as one of the key thought leaders in the world of media today, kicks off this year's conference with the opening keynote address. As Jay Rosen says, "If you’re going to understand what's happening to local media, and what needs to happen, then you need someone who is utterly unsentimental about the old, and fully informed about the new. Unwedded to legacy media, and yet intimate with its ways. Impervious to hype about the digital marvels we hear about, and yet clued-in to what really is radical about digital. Such a guide is Terry Heaton." [posted January 25, 2012]
