Diverse Perspectives
SEJ offers news, events, opportunities and more from diverse viewpoints. Featured this week in News & Views: The Columbia Journalism Review examines an internal battle going on at NPR between the ombudsman and the journalists who produced an award-winning investigation into the South Dakota foster care system’s treatment of Native American children. It illustrates some of the pitfalls of reporting on cultural bias and of using narrative storytelling techniques for investigative work.
