There is a thrill when change is coming where it is needed. While sometimes there is fear and trepidation in changing a processes that has worked for years, there is also a raw excitement in taking on an entirely different approach, and television news is no different. As long-term innovators, at Dalet we are introducing…
Before 2020, the majority of news organizations treated the cloud-based newsroom as an interesting experiment: a technology that might become important in the future, but not necessarily essential part of present-day operations. Too many unknown variables to take into account with a cloud-based newsroom existed, and if the current workflow wasn’t broke, why fix it?…

The early, linear, days When dedicated newsroom computer systems first…
My last article was all about how Dalet Pyramid can help journalists and newsroom managers stay ahead of the curve with wide collaboration, a 360-degree story-centric approach, and a modern, easy-to-use interface.
