Engaging with the #media is not easy, it takes planning & patience. We are happy to share our first 100% home-made animation on 10 tips working with the media by our @A_CMartin, @lnyssen, @mtzaerli & @digitalgiamma: bit.ly/2rxjNur ๐๏ธ๐บ๐ป
#BrusselsCalling with @KCarlsonJourno: "Questions to ask are how, what, when, where why โ A journalist's job is to skim the cream off the milk and find out what real story is"
#BrusselsCalling with @suzannelynch1: "Anyone could design a common ๐ช๐บ #FinancialSystem, but member states don't want to give up the power - an age old structural problem. Among this struggle, when to write a story? Timing is everything when something takes 3 years to develop"
#BrusselsCalling with @McGuinnessEU: "I am poacher turned gamekeeper, career-wise. My style in @Europarl_EN was to attack - now I know it's much easier to comment on something than fix it. That's why we need a system of checks and balancesโ๏ธ"
#BrusselsCalling with @KCarlsonJourno: "We need to do a temperature read, not just in the ๐ช๐บ bubble, but among the public. The #EuroSummit was damning in a way - legitimate concern about another crisis, leaders echoing the language of stability & opposing the banking union."
#BrusselsCalling with @suzannelynch1: "#FinancialCrises have a huge impact. ๐ฎ๐ช had to be bailed out & it's still feeling the consequences, austerity. How banks are bailed out matters for national economies, which is why the banking union idea has been given a new lease of life."
#BrusselsCalling with @reutersHuwJ: "Europe needs to sort out its weaker banks. #CreditSuisse happens, everyone is looking for the next weakest link. With ๐ช๐บ fixing this, the issue is political as opposed to regulatory"
#BrusselsCalling with @AndyBounds: "#FinancialCrisis demonstrates that everything is linked & cooperation is necessary. #CMU, anti-coercion instrument are ideas that have been around since before the current @EU_Commission mandate, but crises propel it forward"
#BrusselsCalling with @AndyBounds: "British media care less and less - they focus on the ๐ช๐บ๐ฌ๐ง relationship but that's it. Until a financial crisis or #Ukraine is a part of the story, British media is more interested when there is a global crisis"
#BrusselsCalling with @suzannelynch1 on #FinancialServices reporting: "Too much jargon - those writing about it aren't native speakers and eurospeak has emerged as a dialect. The ๐ช๐บ has always had a problem with #comms"
#BrusselsCalling with @reutersHuwJ: "Newspapers now compete for speed, wanting to keep up the pace with newswires. Live columns put more pressure on journalists to compete with our rivals by mere seconds"
'How to best work with EU #tech journos? What is special about writing in the Bubble?' ๐ฝ
These are some of the questions discussed by @YPDigitalPolicy guests & panellists @BertuzLuca@EURACTIV & @NewmanMLex@mlexclusive.
We were happy to host the conversation in our officeโ๏ธ

Brussels #media is a lively entity worthy of its own story. But even in the turbulent #EU Bubble, one thing remains central to the game: language.
