Washington News Council's hearing on TV coverage of a Seattle school community -- weigh in with your thoughts

[Stephen Silha]

Greetings, forgers of the new news ecology ~

I participated in the Washington News Council’s hearing last week, and wanted to invite you to weigh in on the coverage by Seattle’s KIRO7 Eyewitness News of a janitor said to have “manhandled” elementary school students.

It was a great example of a community taking responsibility for its truth and how its story should be told.

Now the News Council is inviting the public to vote.  Here's a report from the News Council’s website, which includes links to other stories and a link to the video of the hearing:

Best,
