'Depolarising Journalism' workshop at EYE Forlì 2024
Sat 18 May 2024, 12.00-13.00 (CET)

Our polity is sick. Bad journalism is to blame. News media is polarised, picking sides and telling lies. Healthy societies thrive on open discourse where dialogue leads to constructive outcomes. Good journalism is honest journalism. It's time to depolarise!

 

The 'Depolarising Journalism' workshop outlines the issues with political journalism in Europe today - polarisation, partisanship, deliberate falsification - and challenges participants to engage in open political discussion. You will learn how to be an engaging reporter without relying on clickbait, fake news, or vitriol. Participants will leave the workshop with a working knowledge of the present issues in European political journalism, how to mitigate and overcome these challenges, and how they can help create healthy societies through good journalism.

​

The workshop will be conducted by Will Kingston-Cox, Cyrus Larcombe-Moore, and Callum Crowther.
