About Dave Levy

Dave Levy is a self-proclaimed digital media geek, writing about the history of journalism, media and communication from the perspective of PR professional with a research-background in mass comm. He was also once referred to as “The Doogie Howser of Digital Media” by a snarky colleague. Take that for what it’s worth.

He has contributed to Mediaite, TechPresident and PRWeek on various topics related to the digital world’s impact on the future of media, and also is a contributing author with We Love DC. You can find more regular comments on the subject of communication (and many many other things) in varying length on Twitter, Facebook and LinkedIn.

Of course, for direct contact, there’s always e-mail.

Editor’s note: I work for Edelman PR in Washington, D.C., but everything in this blog is my own work and my own opinion.
