The CPTV documentary “On Deadline: Is time Running Out for the Press?” airs tonight at 8 pm:
Co-produced by John and Rosemary Keogh O’Neill and Jeff Young, On Deadline focuses on the near-demise of the Bristol Press – and to a lesser extent, the New Britain Herald – two years ago, with an update regarding the papers’ present situations. Narrated by broadcast journalist Janet Peckinpaugh, the film also includes interviews with key figures of the news business, many of whom have changed with today’s new technology and brought news coverage online in serious, thoughtful and sustainable ways.
Encore presentation: Friday March 5 at 10 pm.
