Election campaign coverage revisited – recording of 2020 News Engagement Day panel discussion available online – Chippewa Valley Post
In the wake of the news media’s coverage last week’s presidential and down-ballot elections and their aftermaths, you may want to revisit the News Engagement Day panel discussion in early October that dealt with whether facts still matter in political coverage. In that discussion, which was recorded by Wisconsin Public Radio, panelists noted that political campaign coverage this year faced challenges ranging from disinformation on social media to the need for news media to build trust with their audiences. They also noted – accurately – that the outcome of the presidential race was likely to remain unclear for at least several days after Nov. 3.
