'So You Want to be a Reporter' with Carol Marin & Lisa Parker
Reporting in a News Media Crisis
Over the last few months, we've watched the Trump administration sue the parent company of CBS, put restrictions on White House reporters and apply pressure to suspend Jimmy Kimmel from his show — all of which begs a serious question: how free is our free press right now?
DePaul journalism alumni Brenden Moore, Brendan Pedersen and Deni Kamper join hosts Carol Marin and Lisa Parker to discuss the current state of news media and offer guidance on how young reporters can adapt to this changing climate.
Produced by Sabrina Castle, music by Lucas Weisman. "So You Want to be a Reporter" is made possible by DePaul University's Center for Journalism Integrity & Excellence.
