Long time CT resident and Hartford Courant subscriber Mark Landry told me for #NewsEngagementDay that he loves reading the Courant as he prefers local accounts on news as opposed to national ones - particularly coverage about his UConn Huskies during basketball season! #CCSUJournalism

@newyorktimes newest article about climate change was interesting. The authors Raymond Zhong and Giacomo d'Orlando scuba dived with scientists to explore if microbes, ocean tree bark, can mitigate climate change by converting methane into less harmful biomass. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

For #newsengagementday I want to shout out @theguardian.com’s @owenjones.bsky.social. I enjoy reading the informative articles he writes about the tragic conflict in Gaza and how well he relates it to present global contexts as well as historical contexts. #CCSUJournalism

#NewsEngagementDay This article by long time @theguardian.com writer Edward Helmore is very in depth and rich in quotes from surgeon generals warning about this current administrations views on public health and safety. Very fascinating, and worrisome, read. #CCSUJournalism

Fox News is a popular platform that many people nowadays use. I find interesting how their platform finds extensive resources. For example, as Palestine and Israel’s conflict is still occurring, Fox News has gathered political figures and people directly affected. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSENGAGEMENTDAY

Anderson Cooper has stated, “President Trump needs to come to the negotiating table.” Many journalists use their voice to advocate what is going on in the world. Because of their platform they could raise awareness to those who aren’t being heard which is inspiring. #CCSUJOURNALISM #NEWSEGAGEMENTDAY

For #NewsEngagementDay, a salute to one of my favorite podcasts about the profession: The Journalism Salute (pod.link/journalismsalute). @marksimon.bsky.social
has interviewed 246 journalists about who they are & what they do. He shared some wisdom he has gleaned with my #ccsujournalism students.
