241 Laurel Touby, founder, Mediabistro.com - a podcast by Bob Andelman

Today's Guest: Laurel Touby, founder, MediaBistro.com Laurel Touby, MediaBistro.com, Jon Fine, BusinessWeek When Laurel Touby started MediaBistro.com in 1996, being a freelancer in the media business was a fairly solitary position. She became the socializer-in-chief, organizing events to draw writers and editors together, posting media jobs, which led to educational programs and daily news updates. In other words, she gave folks like me a community. LAUREL TOUBY audio excerpt: "I went from the girl who knew nobody to the girl who knew everybody!"  I never got too involved in MediaBistro but I appreciated its existence. And I was quite happy for Laurel when, a few years ago, she sold her company for $23 million. Even better, Laurel has stayed with her company. I invited her on the show to talk about what Mediabistro.com has to offer and to talk about how the disassembly of print media might affect her operation in the future.
