SOUTH ORANGE, N.J., February 15, 2019 – In today’s world of myriad social media and online news sources, it can be difficult to know which outlets to turn to for accurate reporting.

During this session, Cohen will share a variety of different places one can turn to for information on the Jewish world; examine the approach they take and the bias they may bring to sourcing reports; and how that bias may impact the words they choose and the perspective they provide.
