South Side Weekly Workshop Series: Ethics of Journalism

South Side Weekly Workshop Series: Ethics of Journalism

RSVP here »

PEN America is partnering with the South Side Weekly on a series of eight hands-on workshops for different journalism skills. Journalists have a lot of power, and when reporting, it’s crucial to do your best to avoid harm to the communities you’re covering and to ensure that your reporting is fair. Learn about journalism ethics and come prepared to discuss some tough ethical scenarios.


Darryl Holliday is a journalist and media entrepreneur based in Chicago. He’s the cofounder and News Lab Director at City Bureau, a civic journalism lab based on Chicago’s South Side. In 2011, Darryl cofounded Illustrated Press, a media production collective covering urban issues with comics, sequential art, and traditional reporting. He’s been cultivating and supporting innovative approaches to media coverage, newsroom diversity, and civic engagement ever since—formerly as a beat reporter for DNAinfo Chicago and the Chicago Sun-Times.
