Now that the midterm elections are over, prepare for The Webby Debates, a five-part online video series from The Webby Awards focusing on Internet-industry issues including paywalls, privacy, and the value of social media.
The initial installment of The Webby Debates will debut Nov. 10 from The Hospital Club in London as part of Internet Week Europe, and it will feature Milo Yiannopoulos from The Telegraph moderating a discussion on the pros and cons of paywalls, with The Guardian editor Janine Gibson and Financial Times managing editor Robert Shrimsley.
Debate No. 2, to be filmed at CNN’s studios in New York and featured on CNNMoney.com in late November, will focus on whether social media is overrated. CNN Money’s Laurie Segall will moderate, and it will feature Wine Library TV’s Gary Vaynerchuk and TechCrunch columnist Paul Carr.
The Webby Debates are being sponsored by global marketing and design staffing company Aquent.
