2020 - Media in the Middle
A talk by Jim Williamson (BA 1982 UC)
Executive Producer, Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)
If there is one thing journalists know, it’s how to cover a crisis - and then came COVID-19, where we would be tested as never before...The challenge was to be accurate and not alarmist, take risks while not putting lives in danger, and somehow make news programs every day while practicing social isolation. Join Jim Williamson, Executive Producer of CBC Investigations, for a behind-the-scenes portrait of the pandemic and how we covered news in a year when the crises just kept coming!
