Some moments don’t just make headlines—they change the course of journalism itself.
In honor of Poynter’s 50th anniversary, we’re launching The Poynter 50 ([link removed]) , a collection of 50 consequential media moments and figures from the past five decades. These stories capture the turning points that reshaped how we report, consume and understand the news—from the rise of 24-hour coverage to the digital revolution and beyond.
Our first entry revisited CNN’s live reporting of the 1991 Gulf War ([link removed]) , a moment that redefined real-time news reporting. Since then, we’ve explored TMZ’s coverage of Michael Jackson’s death ([link removed]) , which ushered in the era of aggressive digital reporting, and the filming of George Floyd’s murder in 2020 ([link removed]) , which underscored the profound impact of citizen journalism.
Throughout the year, we’ll continue uncovering these pivotal moments, reflecting on their impact and inviting your thoughts along the way ([link removed]) .
Join us as we explore the past to better understand the future. Read our current list of the Poynter 50 ([link removed]) or listen to our newest episode of The Poynter Report ([link removed]) for an in-depth discussion of the project.
Cheers,
The Poynter Experience and Events Team
