ONA Weekly #536: Share Your Work

Share your work

As we immerse in the post-voting phase of the election coverage cycle, we’re looking to amplify the critical work that ONA community members, and journalists like you, are doing to contextualize the results of the U.S. elections for local and global audiences. 

• What is your newsroom doing differently that others could learn from?
• Who or what needs more spotlight in the analysis and public conversation? 
• Managers, how are you supporting your teams?
