Friday 9.30am GMT: ‘Twinterview’ with @RuthBarnett, Sky’s new Twitter correspondent
Ruth Barnett has caused a bit of a stir in online news with her new job: as Sky News’s Twitter correspondent.
Using her Twitter account, @RuthBarnett, Barnett sources news stories on Twitter and feeds them back to the Sky News team.
Tomorrow, Journalism.co.uk will interview @RuthBarnett via @journalism_live, our event and live-interviewing Twitter account. From 9.30 am – 10.30 am she will answer questions using the hashtag #SkyRB.
It will be the end of her first week in the role and she’ll be telling us all about her new job: why, how and what.
Please pitch in with your own questions via Twitter, labelling them #SkyRB and she will answer them after the first 30 minutes of the interview with @journalism_live.
We’ll also be streaming the conversation here on the blog.
