#NewsEngagementDay
The news isn’t always pretty, but ignoring it won’t make it better. Usually, symptoms just get worse. #NewsEngagementDay @aejmc.bsky.social

Happy #NewsEngagementDay! Take the time to read, watch, listen & share news content today! Remember, journalism is more than just the headlines - it’s often deep reporting that holds powerful institutions accountable.

Today, I’ll be working with my peers in #jou4970 as we share our first drafts 👏

For #NewsEngagementDay, a salute to one of my favorite podcasts about the profession: The Journalism Salute (pod.link/journalismsalute). @marksimon.bsky.social
has interviewed 246 journalists about who they are & what they do. He shared some wisdom he has gleaned with my #ccsujournalism students.

#NewsEngagementDay This article by long time @theguardian.com writer Edward Helmore is very in depth and rich in quotes from surgeon generals warning about this current administrations views on public health and safety. Very fascinating, and worrisome, read. #CCSUJournalism

For #newsengagementday I want to shout out @theguardian.com’s @owenjones.bsky.social. I enjoy reading the informative articles he writes about the tragic conflict in Gaza and how well he relates it to present global contexts as well as historical contexts. #CCSUJournalism

@newyorktimes newest article about climate change was interesting. The authors Raymond Zhong and Giacomo d'Orlando scuba dived with scientists to explore if microbes, ocean tree bark, can mitigate climate change by converting methane into less harmful biomass. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

Long time CT resident and Hartford Courant subscriber Mark Landry told me for #NewsEngagementDay that he loves reading the Courant as he prefers local accounts on news as opposed to national ones - particularly coverage about his UConn Huskies during basketball season! #CCSUJournalism

Adina Ahmetovic said she regularly follows NBC News. She believes they have experienced journalists and a diverse coverage. She states, “This platform has a variety of content and accessibility. As well as, avoiding personal opinions which is important nowadays.” #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

Fox News is a popular platform that many people nowadays use. I find interesting how their platform finds extensive resources. For example, as Palestine and Israel’s conflict is still occurring, Fox News has gathered political figures and people directly affected. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

The best way to fact check the information you see on social media is to find more info from other sources from other sites or news platforms! Political fact checkers can be found online and are a valuable resource, especially in a world where AI is developing at a rapid pace! #newsengagementday

Connecticut resident, Hannah Weston, follows @npr because they are informative and interesting to read from their topical articles, new research, and pop culture. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

Dan Haar says by remembering/realizing life is better than they say it is we can fight back. #NewsEngagementDay #ccsujournalism

She wishes people would understand journalists help preserve democracy. They can be part of the solution. #NewsEngagementDay #ccsujournalism

Beth Hamilton wants everyone to remember that journalists are people and recognize that journalism is hard work. It’s troubling to her that her life’s work is being denigrated, but journalists should keep working without fear or favor and hold the line. #NewsEngagementDay #ccsujournalism
