Jeremy Iggers on Citizen Journalism

Jeremy Iggers speaks at noon Thursday, September 25 at the Weisman Art Museum:

Citizens Making News and News Making Democracy: The media landscape has changed dramatically since the 2004 U.S. Presidential election. Opportunities for citizens and alternative media to produce, aggregate, distribute, and respond to the news are increasing. Hear how these trends are playing out in the Twin Cities and talk about what this means in the context of the election season with Jeremy Iggers, executive director of the Twin Cities Media Alliance, which publishes the Twin Cities Daily Planet.
