Event Details

Have you ever wondered how reporters come up with the news they publish or how the news works? Then come to this session to learn the basics of the news business from local working journalists who will answer your questions on what goes into covering the news of the day. Learn the difference between real news and “fake” news. Presented by the San Diego Press Club, San Diego Society of Professional Journalists, and the San Diego Union Tribune.

Knight Foundation, the Democracy Fund, and the Rita Allen Foundation.
