June 8 @ 3:00 pm - 4:30 pm EDT

The media landscape has changed dramatically since the presidential election. There are more news sources than ever, but mis-information is rampant. Join us to learn what you can do to keep yourself well-informed and help others to do the same.

Where can you find the truth?

Join us for this in-person discussion to learn

  • Where to look for the most reliable news
  • How to differentiate between news and noise
  • How you can take an active role in disrupting the flow of mis-information

Led by a panel of experts

  • Tom Melville, former executive news director at WBUR
  • Mary Robb, social studies teacher at Andover High School;
  • Joshua Dyck, Director of UMass Lowell’s Center for Public Opinion
  • Dan Kennedy, Professor of Journalism at Northeastern University.

On topics to include

  • How the media landscape has changed since Trump took office
  • Whether the rise of independent media has helped or hurt voters’ search for the truth, and
  • What additional changes in the media landscape voters expect before the next election cycle

There will be time for Q&A. Bring your questions! We’d like to hear from you!

Also on the agenda:

  • an introduction to Indivisible’s Truth Brigade
