029: Tory Hargro

Published: June 2, 2014, 2 p.m.

b'It\'s HBCU Month, and we\'re kicking things off with a great interview with USA Today\'s visual design manager Tory Hargro. Tory and I talked about user experience and the importance of design in modern news and storytelling. \\n\\nAccording to Tory, "it\'s easier for me to teach a coder how to be a journalist than teach a journalist how to be a coder."\\n\\nSo if you have some design or coding knowledge, then you might look at working with the news in a different way!\\n\\nAlso, learn how the simple turn of a key convinced Tory to attend Alcorn State University. Overall, it was a great interview!'
