Description

With a rise in anti-Semitism in America and beyond, how should the media deal with hate, with hate crimes, with perpetrators, with statistics? How should we cover a dangerous force without underestimating, simplifying or exaggerating? Hear from Adam Serwer, staff writer at The Atlantic, Laurie Goodstein, Deputy International Editor for The New York Times, Jane Eisner, former editor-in-chief of The Forward, Rachel Glickhouse, Partner Manager for the Documenting Hate project at ProPublica and moderator Samuel G. Freedman as they dive into this very important and timely conversation.

Supported by the generosity of the Kaye Family.

Co-sponsored by Columbia Graduate School of Journalism.
