Uncharted Episode 22: Political journalism in the age of Trump

The shortcomings of traditional political journalism have been visible for some time. But the unprecedented presidency of Donald Trump has graphically exposed journalism's weaknesses. In 2016, before the November election, Jay Rosen, Professor of Journalism at New York University, sat down with journalist Kathy Kiely at the Uncharted Festival of Ideas in Berkeley to talk about the right frame for interpreting press coverage of the presidential campaign. Their conclusions hold just as true for journalists after the election, when the stakes have proven so much higher. Every year in Berkeley , Uncharted draws together some of the world's leading thinkers for conversations that provoke , entertain, and attempt to shift the needle towards a better future. Uncharted is produced by Berkeley's independent news site, Berkeleyside .
