This Week in Upfronts

FishbowlNY was at some of the early upfront presentations this week in New York City, attending both Gannett’s and The Discovery Channel’s events on Wednesday and Thursday, respectively.

There were packed audiences at both venues, with Gannett’s presentation being held at the AXA Equitable Center and Discovery holding their event at Jazz at Lincoln Center’s Frederick P. Rose Hall. Gannett had a “stories of extraordinary impact” theme, rolling out speakers like best-selling author Mitch Albom and Olympic track and field star Lolo Jones.
