What’s In Store video series debuts

My retail blog and column brand, What’s In Store, expanded to include a weekly video series this week.

Every week I’ll take readers on a tour of a new store or give them retail news that is unique to the coverage we do in print and on the blog.

“Check back every week for a round up of the top retail news through a new video series with retail reporter, Justine Griffin.

Interested in being apart of the What’s in Store video series? Pitch your story ideas to Justine directly by emailing her here.”

Panelist for The OpEd Project Twitter session

On Monday, I participated in a online panel for The OpEd Project. I was one of two speakers that talked about Twitter best practices with fellows and university staff from Yale University and Dartmouth College.

It was great to be apart of the group.

I’m looking forward to being apart of more of these discussions.

Knight Science Journalism Review

Knight Science Journalism at MIT operates the KSJ Tracker, which featured a blurb about  The Cost of Life on June 24, 2014.

The review was written by Paul Raeborn, a media critic.

The Cost of Life is well worth your time. If it had run in the New York Times, it would be news across the country now, and we would be seeing Griffin interviewed by Charlie Rose. In the media capital here in New York City, where we’re accustomed to thinking that we know everything, it’s important to be reminded that good journalism can be done anywhere.”
