Expanded Course Description
Examine the practice of news journalism and the manner in which it is being remolded by new digital platforms and increasing competition. You will focus on journalism in Britain and the United States and look briefly at English-language news platforms in other parts of the word. You will need to read widely about how the world is reported. Learn more about journalism rather than how to be a journalist, but you will have the chance to write and report as well. At this time, the world - and the world's news media - has one focus: the COVID-19 pandemic. We will look at how it has been reported and analyzed, how journalists and newsrooms operate through a "lockdown," and how this worldwide emergency has reshaped patterns of news media consumption. Examine the ethics of news reporting and the difficulties – of safety, balance, authority – in covering war and conflict.
