Description
WHAT COLOR IS THE NEWS?: THE COVERAGE OF RACE IN AMERICA delves into the debate surrounding how and why news events are reported. This one-hour special was produced in cooperation with the Fred Friendly Seminars, and brings together journalists from all over the country to discuss a series of hypothetical situations involving race that could arise in the day-to-day media operations. Harvard Law School professor Charles Ogletree moderates the event, held at the historic Old State Capitol in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Ogletree proposes hypothetical situations to guest panelists who discuss the dynamics of how race is reported — and underreported — in the American press. |
