Students of Radio/Audio 2 worked all semester for this event. Hosted in collaboration with the Business Ethics Alliance and the Scottish Rite, the production put citizen journalism on trial.
Our reporters delved into current trends and ethical dilemmas faced by journalists and bloggers. Is Matt Drudge a journalist? Should the fabrication of facts end the career of TV news anchor Brian Williams?
We also explored the concept of yellow journalism and the underlying impact of the historical film Citizen Kane.
