SPJ Fake News Forum

  
EKU Society of Professional Journalists is hosting a Fake News Forum. The forum raises a discussion about how the phrase "fake news" has affected the media industry, political climate and public figures. The panel consists of President Michael Benson; Anne Cizmar, Associate Professor in Department of Government and Economics; Ginny Whitehouse, Professor in Department of Communications; and Lawrence Smith, WDRB 41 Reporter. The moderator, Michael AJ Randolph, Lecturer in Department of Communications, will ask each panelist a question regarding their opinion on the rise of fake news, what fake news entails and how journalists plan to combat fake news. The event is open to the general public. Students who attend for class participation will receive a slip as proof of attendance. For more information, contact SPJ President Noena Zerna.
