The Vital Role of Journalism in Times of Crisis - MEDIATION N°5, June 2020

The Covid-19 pandemic highlights the need for reliable and credible information during a major crisis. In such a context, the social role of journalism is more crucial than ever. We discuss this in the fifth issue of our biannual publication, "Mediation", with analysis, data, and interviews, including a discussion with the editor of the "constructive journalism" section of the reference British newspaper, The Guardian.
