Description

What would journalism look like if it wasn’t written for an editor, but for your best friend over dinner?


In this Backlight episode, we dive into how news content creator-journalists are redefining the way stories are told and what traditional journalists can learn from them.


On this episode, we hear from news content creators Johanna Rüdiger, Johnny Harris, and Adam Cole (Howtown) about how they build trust, make complex stories engaging, and connect with audiences to make the facts feel a little more fun.



Hosts: Beatriz Ramalho da Silva, Tessa Pang
