Captivating Attention

Our host, LUL President & CEO Lyndon Pryor, is joined by Eric King, Digital Communications Strategist for the ACLU of Kentucky. With more than two decades of experience as a classically trained broadcast journalist covering some of the country’s biggest news events, he’s using that same storytelling power to modernize and digitize the ACLU’s communications across all platforms. Our duo discusses the changing media landscape, how to identify a trusted new source, the politics of the media, and the emergence of podcasts as news sources. King graduated with a BS in Sociology from UofL and a certification from the Diversity Executive Leadership Academy. Check out his book, "Breaking News: Confessions of a Disruptive News Anchor" and follow his reporting on Substack.
