A Foundation of WCC Arts and Humanities Speaker Series lecture
The headlines have been full of references to Fake News and debate about the state of journalism in the U.S. With accelerating changes in journalism and the news media, there is much to understand as citizens must sort through an increasing choice of news sources. Declining revenues for traditional journalism and the proliferation of media outlets are changing the landscape, leaving many consumers confused. Dr. Kriess has done research about the evolving state of communication and will share his knowledge about its effects on our society.
Dr. Daniel Kreiss is Associate Professor in the School of Media and Journalism and Adjunct Associate Professor in the Department of Communication at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Kreiss’ research explores the impact of technological change on the public sphere and political practice.
