A Post Truth Era In Politics

Creative Commons

The media face new and serious challenges in covering the current U.S. Presidential election. That's according to ISU Communication Professor John Huxford.

Huxford is a former British reporter, editor, and feature writer who has nearly 20 years of experience in journalism. Huxford teaches classes in news literacy and cultural studies.

He'll be speaking Wednesday in the Bone Student Center Prairie Room about the presidential campaign.

Huxford talks with GLT's Charlie Schlenker about the ways in which we are entering a post truth political era.

 

WGLT Senior Reporter Charlie Schlenker has spent more than three award-winning decades in radio. He lives in Normal with his family.
