    Journalism after 9/11: Azmat Khan on the lessons reporters still can't afford to ignore

    Twenty-five years after the attacks of September 11, leading journalists, First Amendment advocates and scholars gathered at Columbia University for The Forever War and the First Amendment, a symposium examining how two decades of conflict reshaped journalism. Fresh from the event, Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative reporter Azmat Khan joined E&P Reports to discuss what the press learned—and failed to learn—from covering the War on Terror. She argued that many of the challenges exposed after 9/11, from overreliance on government sources to growing secrecy and declining public trust, continue to shape journalism today. For local news leaders, Khan said, those lessons remain as relevant in their communities as they are on the world's biggest stories.

    News funding as a bargaining chip: Could the U.S.-Canada trade war let Big Tech off the hook?

    News industry leaders weigh whether pressure to repeal Canada's Online News Act could threaten newsroom funding and weaken publishers' push for platform compensation worldwide. Could a deal to ease the U.S.-Canada trade war let Big Tech off the hook for funding news? Canada's Online News Act has secured millions for journalism, but publishers fear that support could become a bargaining chip in negotiations with Washington. For newsrooms receiving the money, the stakes are immediate; for publishers elsewhere, the outcome could shape their own fight for compensation. Four industry and policy leaders joined E&P Reports: Paul Deegan, president and CEO of News Media Canada, Neil Quinter, senior vice president of the News/Media Alliance, Hugh Stephens, a distinguished fellow with the Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada and executive fellow at the University of Calgary and Stig Ørskov, CEO of WAN-IFRA to examine the threat, challenge the trade arguments and explain why this Canadian battle matters far beyond its borders.

    How Noisy Creek is breathing new life into an industry many had written off: A one-on-one with Brady Walkinshaw

    Alternative weeklies were once the unruly heartbeat of American cities, shaping politics, culture, nightlife and public conversation before collapsing advertising and changing media habits pushed many toward extinction. Brady Walkinshaw believes the industry mistook disruption for irrelevance. Through Noisy Creek, he is acquiring, reviving and reinvesting in beloved local publications that others had written off. His wager is that their fiercely independent voices, community roots and tangible print presence may be more valuable in an increasingly automated media world than ever before.  Access more at this episode's landing page, at: https://www.editorandpublisher.com/stories/how-noisy-creek-is-breathing-new-life-into-an-industry-many-had-written-off-a-one-on-one-with,263054
