THE SESSION:
To many, the word “listicle” is a filthy, vile thing. It signifies the destruction of journalism and the rise of the low-attention span. But publishers—and, more importantly, audiences—love listicles. And they’re right to love them. There are a lot of reasons listicles are a pretty great device for communicating incredible travel content—10 reasons, to be precise. In this sessions, we’ll break it down, point by point, and you’ll learn how to pitch them, when to use them, and why to love them.
