JOUR 200 - Contemporary News Media and Society

Never in American history have the news media been more important—or played a more influential role in our participatory democracy. This course explores the wide-ranging impacts of news on American citizens, institutions and government. It delves into emerging media forms and platforms and examines trends and pressing controversies surrounding contemporary journalism. Finally, the course teaches students "news literacy" or the tools to critically navigate the flood of information, encourage change, and create impact.
