Keeping It Real: Exploring Non-Traditional Avenues for Reporting Truth and Battling Misinformation

During the fall workshop, we’ll hear from several speakers who are using non-traditional platforms or approaches to disseminate important, high-quality news amidst a sea of misinformation. In addition to telling about their journeys, speakers will share their professional standards, how they prove their credibility to their audiences and how they are using their channels to fight back against misinformation. All professional communicators can learn from these practices.
