AirPlay 2
UPDATE #13
8 DAYS AGO
Hello. My name is Aaron Pabon, Anchor and Managing Editor of Game Journalism Network (GameJournalism.net).
GJN is in the process of planing and hosting Airplay 2, a continuation of the SPJ Airplay panels that were hosted at Forging the Future 2015.
These panels were about questioning the ethical standards in gaming journalism, and about the controversy known as GamerGate.
The original conversation, however, was cut short, due to multiple bomb threats.
The next AirPlay, will be hosted at a TBA location in Tampa, Florida, on Sunday, April 17, 2016.
Security will be a high priority, and this time around we will that the highest precautions are taken with no expense spared to ensure the safety of event attendees and panelists. We've learned from the first AirPlay and will ensure that no false bomb threats, violent threats, protest, or dangerous individuals will harm the attendees or silence this open discussion. Police will be present, private security will be hired, and regular sweeps of the building will be made to ensure the building is 100% secure.
AirPlay 2 will be live streamed on GJN's YouTube channel, and will both pick up where the last AirPlay left off, host a new discussion and formal debate, and separate from the main panel room will will a secondary panel room for speakers or groups of speakers to host their own live panels. These are open to whatever subject the speakers requesting decide on.
For security, funds for securing the location, and equipment for adequate live streaming, we are looking for $5,000.
Currently, we have a confirmed location, but for security reasons, we are not revealing the location at this time.
Approximately $3000 will be for securing panelists travel and lodging.
The rest of the funds will be used for proper streaming equipment, and security.
GJN will be transparent with both the funds, and funders. In addition, we will post detailed receipts on it's website at gamejournalism.net
We want to make it clear that this is neither a pro or anti Gamergate event. GJN is hoping for this to be a neutral zone for an open discussion for both sides of the issues related to the controversy, conduct live journalism, and document it.

"Hate" to break it to you, but if the discussion is held, and it's about ethics (and it won't be interrupted) it is a pro gamergate discussion.
