Class Description

Description

Vet sources and fact-check quotes, photographs, headlines, and more.

Enhance news content with this new technology

Looking to sharpen your reporting skills? How do you know an article is truly true -- and what steps should you take to be absolutely sure you know what you think you know?

Fact-checking is vital to journalism. This is especially true now that we're dealing with so-called "fake news" and "alternative facts." In this two-and-a-half-hour workshop, Brooke Borel, journalist and author of The Chicago Guide to Fact-Checking, will walk you through the what why and how of fact-checking.

You'll learn how to vet sources of all types and how to fact-check quotes, photographs, headlines, and more. We’ll also cover how to navigate relationships with writers, reporters, editors, and sources.

You'll come away with the basic skills to fact-check at any news outlet, and you'll also have tips on how you can apply these steps to your own work if you don’t have the luxury of working with a fact-checker.

Refund Policy

Cancellations made at least 2 business days in advance of the class will be honored with a refund less 5% cancellation fee.

In the event that an instructor or the school needs to cancel at the last minute, students will receive a refund less a 5% non-refundable registration fee.
