Politics these days dominates our lives — and our media. With daily outrages filling the news, anxiety over the country’s course has reached a fever pitch. What’s the role, in this climate, for writing on culture? How has the work of editing and reporting changed? How do we make space, online and in the world, for trenchant journalism not defined by the news cycle but attuned to its shifts? Join us for a discussion with industry experts who will shed some light on these important questions.

A discussion with Emily Stokes (The New Yorker), Rachel Sanders (Buzzfeed), and Hillary Brenhouse (Guernica)

Moderated by Joshua Jelly-Schapiro (Institute for Public Knowledge / Adjunct Prof. at NYU Journalism)
