How can we find clarity in a saturated media landscape?
Hot off the press or constantly refreshing online, news media churns at an unremitting pace. Amid the overwhelming deluge of information, alarming headlines, and increasingly partisan networks, how do we navigate the media landscape? What tools are needed to quiet the clamour of media rhetoric, and listen intently? How to cut through bias and misinformation? How can we reframe our conditions for consuming the news in ways that foster social change? Artists, researchers, journalists, economists, and activists confront the volume, speed, and gaps in reporting with strategies that encourage agency, self-reflection, and criticality when engaging with the news. These contributions highlight the importance of sharing opinions in mainstream media, bolstering alternative publications that amplify marginalized voices, and using art’s public role to create space for contemplation and conversation. Amidst local and global crises, how do we maintain a sense of urgency after the news cycle has moved on?
