Gawker to Host Private Screening of 'Times' Documentary 'Page One'
Film casts blog company as paper's antagonist
On the eve of the June 17 release of Page One, Andrew Rossi’s documentary about The New York Times’ ongoing wrestling match with new media, Gawker Media and Magnolia Pictures will hold a private screening on the rooftop of Gawker’s Manhattan office. The screening will be followed by a panel featuring Rossi, The Atlantic’s Michael Hirschorn, Gizmodo’s Brian Lam, and the two stars of the film: Times media writers David Carr and Brian Stelter.
It's an interesting choice of venue, because, like WikiLeaks and the Huffington Post, Gawker features prominently in Page One as a threat to the Times' very existence.
