What and why are we doing?We create the skeleton of the procedure for daily planning of the work of an information resource that works on the principles of journalism. With a minimum expenditure of time, it is necessary to plan an information day, both in terms of content, priorities, and in terms of information presentation forms.

We forget about possible multimedia forms, have little creative in the development of topics, skip interesting perspectives, often go "along the beaten track"
What are we doing?An easy-to-use tool that allows you to quickly go through the basic planning phase and stimulates the work of editors and correspondents in disclosing a specific topic / event.
Rule: For each participant of the planning meeting, an understanding is formed that planning an information day is work that is done before the morning planning meeting. At the planning meeting, only coordination of topics, determination of priorities, and brainstorming to finalize the proposed themes and forms take place.
