  • #failfair

As more digital journalists try new ideas, structures and products, failure is often part of the process -- and where we learn our most valuable lessons. In an updated reprise of a popular session at the Global Editor's Network's recent conference, three leaders in the digital journalism community, from The Washington Post, the Guardian US and theatlantic.com, have a candid conversation about getting the most out of our mistakes.
