Join the Eagle and staff and publishers from various local news outlets for a forum on the state of media in Queens Tuesday at 2 p.m. 

The panel, moderated by Queens Chamber of Commerce President and CEO Tom Grech, features representatives from Queens Gazette, Queens Ledger, Queens Chronicle, Queens Post, Metropolitan Airport News and, of course, the Eagle. Public relations pro Jeff Simmons will moderate.

“It was a challenging period for newspapers before COVID-19, with at least 1,800 newspapers across the country shutting their doors since 2004,” Grech said. “Now, amid the pandemic, newsrooms are facing a new crisis as they adapt to industry changes, decreased advertising, and smaller staffs, many now working remotely.” 

The “State of Queens Media” Zoom panel takes place Tuesday at 2 p.m.
