“In 2021, journalists must use history to report stories that proactively
invite reckoning and, ultimately, accountability.”
Sometimes I type the word “reckoning” into the Google search bar and hit the “News” tab. I enjoy seeing what news editors think the world is reckoning with this week.
For example, as I write this, The Wall Street Journal is writing that “A Reckoning Looms for Commercial Real Estate and Its Lenders.” A letter writer at the Helena Independent Record argues “A reckoning is coming for Republicans.” There are apparent reckonings on the way within the travel industry, the tech industry, and French soccer, too.
