Has there ever been a more exciting time for journalism... or a more terrifying? On the one hand, new media operations and models are exploding onto the landscape. On the other, newsrooms are shrinking and institutions are crumbling.

And what of citizens? What are we all to make of an environment where trust is fading... where communities fragment... polarisation heightens... and where our attention is being pulled in so many directions?

These are the questions explored in The Future of Journalism. Presenters Julie Béguin and Jackie Imas track down the innovators, academics, and industry veterans who can make sense of this paradoxical moment in the media.

The Future of Journalism brings perspectives across generations and disciplines to explore how the industry is evolving amid digital disruption. It acts as a guide to industry change, featuring expert insights on new models, technological shifts and emerging opportunities for journalists.

Jackie started in journalism when manual typewriters were still a thing. Even then, the death of the media was a live topic. As for Julie, her interest in the media is cultural and philosophical. When the media fragments, what happens to the commonality of human experience?

If history teaches us anything, it’s that predictions about the death of the media are usually too pessimistic. Discover if that still holds with The Future of Journalism.
