Byline: How Local Journalists Can Improve The Global News Industry And Change The World

International journalism needs a new paradigm, and this is the moment to forge one. In the wake of the pandemic and ongoing racial and environmental justice movements, news consumers are demanding better stories. International coverage prioritizes disasters and victim-centered narratives, ignores huge chunks of the world, and relies on outdated stereotypes. This kind of news reinforces the distrust people feel for the news. The solution, as Cristi Hegranes details throughout this book, lies with local journalists who live in the communities at the center of the stories. They can tell the accurate, precise, compelling stories readers across the world are desperate to read. By changing the mindset around who covers the news and how people in that coverage are depicted, Hegranes charts a path the entire industry can follow back to build trust, authority, and great er success.
