Every month, I get onto a Zoom with Taylor Blatchford, engagement editor for The Seattle Times’ investigative team and the editor of The Lead, Poynter’s newsletter for student journalists.We share our plans for the upcoming months to make sure we’re serving the needs of the journalism education community while complementing each other’s work (and also frequently complimenting it, because that’s what buddies do).Recently, I told her that the Alma Matters survey, which several of you were kind enough to fill out, specified a desire for more outstanding work by college journalists, both in classes and for college media outlets.
Origen: The doom and gloom about the news industry? You won’t find it in college newsrooms. – Poynter
