Friday, May 7: Free Investigative Business Journalism Training
Join Pulitzer winner Gary Cohn and former Washington Post investigative reporter Alec Klein in this FREE full-day workshop, “Investigative Business Journalism on a Beat,” as they walk you through the steps to successful investigative business stories. These two top reporters turned journalism professors will take you through the investigative story from start to finish: refining and pitching an idea, developing and interviewing sources, plumbing public documents, and organizing and presenting the story effectively in multimedia. Come with an idea for an investigative project, and leave with a story pitch to take back to your editors. The emphasis will be on pursuing investigations while still covering your beat.
The event is free, but limited to 50 people. Click here to register.
