Morgan State University will host a panel discussion on the future of global journalism on April 2, bringing together journalists and educators to examine the challenges facing the industry today.

Dean Jackie Jones and Carolyn Beeler, co-host of "The World," spoke with WEAA ahead of the event, emphasizing the importance of protecting independent journalism at a time when trusted news sources are under pressure. The conversation touched on how journalists are covering difficult stories, the nuances required in global reporting and the distinction between traditional journalism and global journalism.
