This course takes a closer look at the news, both in terms of its content and as a media phenomenon. Focussing on news stories as they are reported in the English-speaking world, students will develop their ability to speak intelligently about politics, society, culture, the environment, local and world news, economics, or celebrity gossip. In addition to stories currently appearing in the news, themes such as journalistic neutrality and bias, the news cycle, and legacy versus new media will also be explored, leading to a more nuanced and critical understanding of English-language news media. Students will also develop their presentation skills, researching and speaking about their own particular interests.
