Page one : inside the New York times / Magnolia Pictures and Participant Media in association with History Films present ; producers, Josh Braun, David Hand, Alan Oxman, Adam Schlesinger ; produced & written by Kate Novack & Andrew Rossi ; directed by Andrew Rossi.
This documentary chronicles the transformation of The New York Times newsroom and the inner workings of the Media Desk, as the Internet redefines the media industry by surpassing print as the main source of news. At the heart of the film is the burning question on the minds of everyone who cares about a rigorous American press, Times lover or not: what will happen if the fast-moving future of media leaves behind the fact-based, original reporting that helps to define our society? This up-close look at factors and actors that produce the "daily miracle" of a great news organization is a nuanced portrait of journalists continuing to produce extraordinary work under increasingly difficult circumstances.
