Join journalists and professors from around New York in discussing the way that journalism is changing under the Trump administration and in our global political climate. 

With so much at stake, how can our media counter efforts that threaten freedom of speech and truth? Some subjects to be discussed include what to do when news outlets and journalists are silenced; how to holding governments and representatives accountable for providing the truth to its citizens, and how to recognize and understand propaganda and the role of fake news.

The media’s role in this climate is multifaceted and, perhaps now more than ever, of the utmost importance. Speakers will give a broad spectrum of opinions in the many ways digital media is addressing our most pressing issues.

Moderated by Studley Graduate Program in International Affairs (SGPIA) alumna Tamara Laine.

Speakers include: 

Terence Moran, Professor of Media Ecology in the Department of Media, Culture, and Communication at New York University

Susan McGregor, Assistant Professor & Assistant Director, Tow Center for Digital Journalism

Jack Smith IV,  from Mic.
