Strengthening local news, community and democracy Stream the Knight Media Forum LIVE on YOUR Website LIVE February 26-27, 2019 The Knight Media Forum is the most important annual gathering of journalists, funders, information theorists and others interested in the future of the news media in this country. And this year its mission is more crucial than ever, as trust in the media continues to decline, as local newsrooms shrink, as news deserts expand and as the threat these changes pose for democracy becomes abundantly clear. The Knight Media Forum will be convening leading experts at both the local and national level to explore solutions to assure that all citizens receive accurate, reliable news and information that serves the needs of their diverse communities. Detroit Public TV will be live streaming the conference on February 26-27 and providing it to organizations free of charge. Anchoring the coverage is Emmy-winning journalist, Hari Sreenivasan, host of “PBS NewsHour Weekend” and the national public television show “SciTech Now.” EMBED NOW | DOWNLOAD TOOLKIT | VIEW AGENDA FEATURED SPEAKER David Brooks Columnist, New York Times Keynote speech Wednesday, 2/27, 12:30-2pm ABOUT THE KNIGHT FOUNDATION Knight Foundation is a national foundation with strong local roots.
