Registration is open for the final two sessions of the Bridging Divides, Healing Communities Speaker Series.
The next session, titled âHow Modern Media Can Create and Bridge Divides,â will take place at 7 p.m. Tuesday.
The guest speakers are Alec MacGillis, politics and government reporter at ProPublica, and Charles M. Sennott, founder, CEO and editor of The GroundTruth Project and Report for America. They will discuss how cable news and social media are amplifying narratives of discord as unbiased local news organizations disappear, the impact of these shifts on our discourse and institutions, and how to repair the damage.
The conversation will be moderated by Fredric D. Rutberg, president and publisher of The Berkshire Eagle.
