We will explore the inception of the 24/7 news cycle, the revolution in information access via digital platforms, and the importance of verified, reputable reporting.

From legacy news media outlets to leading social media platforms, information is everywhere. Come and learn about the tools and tactics available to use to sift through the noise, get the facts, and stay informed.

This presentation will focus solely on the increased access to information (regardless of accuracy) via digital platforms. Attendees are encouraged to come with questions and to be courteous, respectful, and open to communal discussion.
