Journalist Roundtables

What could this idea change?

Community organisations learn how to supply more relevant, accurate information while journalists retain independence and source diversity.

Could this work in our club?

• Local reporters, editors, producers, independent publishers, journalism educators and Rotary media leaders. Use when newsroom changes have made existing media practices ineffective.

Before you start

• Neutral learning question and invite list spanning local media formats.
• Independent facilitator, attribution rule and no-pitch agenda.
• Hospitality, gifts, recording, accessibility and conflict settings approved.

At the end: Implement the promised newsroom-facing changes, report progress once to participants, and avoid repeated invitations unless a new shared question exists.
