I am the Managing Editor for User-Generated Content for WRAL.com and GOLO.com. I also hire and train a team of community moderators who are charged with elevating the conversations on our news stories and promoting civil discourse. I am always willing to talk about this and share ideas. Newspapers need to get on board. I worked in the newspaper industry for several years so I am well aware of the resistance that exists and difficulties that accompany those seeking change. I hold a job like this at WRAL.
