Hello,
We’re excited to announce that Al Jazeera America will be hosting a Google Hangout to introduce its flagship show, “America Tonight.” Special correspondent Soledad O’Brien and host Joie Chen join digital producer Azmat Khan and the “America Tonight” team on Monday, Aug. 5 at 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT to discuss how they’re doing news differently.
You’ll get a sneak peek into upcoming stories -- including an exclusive video clip from the show – and learn more about the show’s mission to tell urgent, important and underreported stories with the quality, depth and time they deserve.
Want to join us? RSVP on Google+ right now.
The Hangout is also an opportunity for you to help us find those stories. We want to hear from you! Tweet @AJAM with #AJAMLive or leave a comment on our Facebook or Google+ pages to give us your thoughts on the following topics:
1) How should a nightly news program serve you?
2) #AllAmericans: Share first-person stories from Americans who usually go unheard.
3) #WhatWorks: Successful solutions to problems, with concrete demonstrable results. These can include anything from a scientific breakthrough, to a medical cure, to a program that remedies social problems, to an individual who changes lives for the better.
“America Tonight” producers will be looking through your pitches and selecting a handful to be featured in the Hangout, and you may even see your story idea on the show when the channel launches Aug. 20.
Be sure to RSVP on Google for the Aug. 5 Hangout and invite your friends to join too!
-The Al Jazeera English Team
P.S. – Stay tuned for updates on how to continue getting the great content you love when Al Jazeera America comes to your television lineup on Aug. 20.
