    In the past few years, many journalists are rethinking how best to fulfill their critical role in democracy, reevaluating horse-race coverage, changing how they engage with their communities, and focusing more on community needs than candidates’ personalities.

    That work will become even more important as we approach the 2024 elections, and you’re invited to hear from journalists who are leading this transformation and how they’re doing it through pro-democracy, solutions-focused coverage that starts before Election Day and continues long after it is over.

    On September 12 at 1 pm ET, hear from leaders of three newsrooms that have embraced pro-democracy reporting – Jessica Husemam, Editorial Director for Votebeat, Ashton Lattimore, Editor-in-Chief of Prism Reports, and Darla Cameron Managing Editor for Visual Journalism for The Texas Tribune. Osita Nwanevu, contributing editor at The New Republic and a columnist at The Guardian, will moderate.
