ONA Weekly #439: Announcing A Promotion For Hollie Schultz

Announcing a promotion for Hollie Schultz

This week we’re celebrating Hollie Schultz, who is taking on an expanded role here at ONA as the Director of Awards and Community Resources.

Since 2019, Hollie has led the strategy, management and growth of the Online Journalism Awards program, one of the most prestigious awards in news. Hollie also has worked on developing resources for a new fiscal sponsorship program aimed at emerging journalism support organizations, which kicked off this year with the Pivot Fund. Moving forward, Hollie will also focus on how to develop new resources for ONA members and the broader community, as well as set strategy for maintaining and sunsetting resources over time. Congratulations, Hollie!

Beyond Twitter and Meta

Pause your doomscrolling. Let’s talk about what the mass layoffs and changes at Meta and Twitter really mean for news organizations and journalism partnerships. Register now to join ONA and the American Press Institute online Friday, Dec. 16, for Beyond Twitter and Meta: What’s next for news on social media?

During this participatory event, facilitated breakout groups will dive into different impacts, including: funding, distribution challenge, community engagement and career opportunities, especially for freelancers and journalists that have historically been underrepresented in the industry.
