Gideon Yago and Nancy Schafer at Tribeca 09

by Brian Brooks (May 8, 2009)

More from the 2009 Tribeca Film Festival. Last week, Gideon Yago co-hosted the Tribeca Film Festival Awards and did a mighty fine job we might add. Pictured here in between introducing speakers with the festival’s director Nancy Schafer, Yago also is continuing his gig with IFC (if you live in NYC, you see those ubiquitous ads on taxis) called simply enough, “IFC Media Project.” The program, which also ran last year, examines media and the shakedown still underway in journalism. “My goal in this series is to give a sobering wake-up call to anyone who takes the media at face value,” said Yago at a discussion about the program attended by iW’s Eugene Hernandez.
