Framing Atrocity: Photojournalism and Press Freedom

First up, researcher and editor Michelle Eid joins the show to talk about literal framing when it comes to photojournalism, and how extractive dehumanizing journalism turns people’s pain and suffering into career-boosting material, perpetuating harmful stereotypes and bolstering the dangerous disconnect that allows atrocities to continue. Michelle highlights the importance of relationship building and archival work, but that how this work is done is critical. Next up, Mickey Huff and Eleanor Goldfield sit down to dissect some recent news that didn’t make the news, contextualize what press freedom looks like from the US to Sweden, and why AI should never be in charge of telling us what news is.
