Jesse Washington, Entertainment Editor, AP

Recorded at the entertainment publicists professional society (EPPS) luncheon “Digital Entertainment Publicity.”

Jesse Washington discusses the AP’s expanding role covering entertainment news, truth versus rumor, and the paparazzi. 

Some of Jesse’s VlogViews: 

“The public’s appetite for entertainment news has changed and we have to satisfy that by applying AP standards to what is a wild and freewheeling type of universe.” 

“People are very interested in images these days, it’s a very visual culture that we live in. So we have to augment the traditional word on a page or on a screen with something people can look at and engage with.” 

“We’re not paparazzi and we never will be. Jon Bon Jovi shopping is not news for us. Jon Bon Jovi making music, releasing an album, getting into trouble is news and so we will cover that. But in general we are not going to be in that big pack of photographers standing around waiting for something to happen.”
