And the producers who make up this start-up take pride in offering cable viewers something different, specifically more international and under-reported stories.

Description: Before being tapped in 1999 to help launch Lucky magazine, Kim France had earned her stripes at Sassy, New York Magazine and Spin. But perhaps nothing had prepared her for venturing into the uncharted territory that was a magazine about... shopping.

France says she was grateful to have had the resources at Condé Nast to give the new mag a fighting chance. Nonetheless, she describes the experience as both thrilling and terrifying. "We had some who people were senior in the company watching what we were doing, but we were just sort of like our merry band of outsiders," says France.

In this video, France also talks about Girls of a Certain Age, her fashion and style blog for women beyond their 20s and 30s; and offers her advice to aspiring magazine journalists and bloggers.

Date posted: 13 years ago
Description: In the old days, a good reporter's responsibilities included pounding the pavement (or the phone), getting the story, and writing it up for that evening's newscast or next day's paper.

As ABC Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl tells us in part two of our MediaBeat interview those days are long gone.

Social media has changed the game, adding the need for reporters to both monitor and engage. An early "reluctant adapter" to Twitter, Karl now says it's impossible to cover his beat without it. But he cautions against overuse: "You can't be distracted by all that stuff."

And what advice does he have for up and coming reporters in this new digital age? Don't forget the basics.

ABC's Chief White House Correspondent Jonathan Karl has been busy trying -- and in the process has gotten into it twice over the last month with White House Press Secretary Jay Carney, including just yesterday.

In a MediaBeat interview conducted at ABC's Washington Bureau, Karl told us about the need to remain skeptical of what the White House is telling you, regardless of who's in office. He also revealed some interesting behind-the-scenes tidbits from campaign 2012. You might be surprised to know how little Karl saw candidate Mitt Romney—even when flying on the same plane.

Title: Reaching the Millennial Audience
Runtime: 1:04
Date posted: 13 years ago
Description: At TV Week in New York City, MediabistroTV talked to the heads of a couple new TV networks aimed at millennials. Though the thought of starting a new TV network for the generation that famously eschews traditional media seems a little ill-advised, it's not like brands have this whole millennial thing down either. So what can PR pros learn from these media upstarts about their target demo? "A number of big brands are coming to the millennial game late," said Evan Shapiro, president of Pivot. "There's a misperception that [millennials] don't care about anything but themselves. That's absolutely incorrect."
