Ever wonder how BuzzFeed finds funny, heartwarming, or enraging viral news before everyone else? The next in our series of professional development webinars will look at how to track down content on social media, how to find the best tools that do the work for you, and how to make sure you're not falling for a viral hoax.

The webinar "How To Go Viral Like A Journalist" is scheduled for Tuesday February 28, at 3:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

The webinar will be hosted by Lauren Strapagiel, managing editor for Canada at BuzzFeed. She has previously worked at the National Post, Canada.com, and the Huffington Post Canada.
