SUMMARY:State of the Media: Reporting in the Age of Post-Truth, Twitter and Trump
DESCRIPTION:With foreign news reporting already dwindling and under pressure for entertainment and shorter pieces in a changing media landscape, we will discuss what's happening to Americans' understanding about the crucial context of how foreign societies function, their histories and how they perceive the United States. What are the possible lasting consequences for America's role in the world? And how should reporters, editors and media stakeholders ensure better coverage? Join distinguished former ICWA fellows who have reported for leading print, broadcast and digital outlets from around the world discussing their work and the future of foreign news reporting.
