Reviews for this courseTestudo

Prerequisite: JOUR320/JOUR360. JOUR389P must be taken concurrently with JOUR389O. We will study the daily coverage of the 22 election, analyzing the differences in reporting by three networks. This emphasizes reporting, critical thinking, and journalistic judgements. It studies competitive television news coverage but is not a television course. The reporting will center on politics but will not overlook other major stories. Who controls the Senate and House will determine the course of the Biden presidency.
