Join this essential conversation to learn about the successes and failures of 45 newsrooms who participated in a three-month pilot project designed to transform their crime coverage into public service journalism.
This session is designed for:
- Journalists who cover local news and must decide which crimes to cover or how to hold law enforcement accountable.
- Journalists who work for national outlets and must decide which crime stories are relevant to a national audience.
- Journalists who are looking for a new pathway to connect with underserved communities.
