In an ever-evolving ecosystem of news reporting and delivery, an important question is being considered and debated: Will long-form stories go unread in a generation that relies on 140 characters to get their news? To answer this question, ProPublica and The New School are bringing together leading journalists from multiple media platforms to explore the challenges and opportunities this new reality presents to our craft, to news delivery and to public discourse.
Featuring Ira Glass (Host and Producer, This American Life), David Remnick (Editor, The New Yorker), Raney Aronson-Rath (Series Senior Producer, Frontline), Stephen Engelberg (Managing Editor, ProPublica), and moderated by Alison Stewart (Co-Anchor, Need To Know).
