SUMMARY:Platforms & Press Symposium
DESCRIPTION:Fact-based journalism is essential to public health, development, and accountable governance. The increasing dominance of online platforms over our public sphere has led to an uneasy relationship between news organizations and large tech companies. While the latter have generated new opportunities to connect journalists with audiences, evade censorship, and engage in influential cross-border collaborations, they have also forced journalists to contend with shifting algorithmic priorities, warped incentive structures in the online economy, and an increasingly complex array of technology policies that shape the environment in which they work and the business models for sustainability. Perhaps most urgently, the platformization of journalism has contributed to a crisis in funding in which quality journalism, particularly locally-focused and investigative journalism, has struggled to figure out how to navigate sustainability in the information age.\nThis Symposium, which is organized by the UCLA Institute for Technology, Law & Policy, is intended to respond to the recent wave of legislative proposals aimed at supporting sustainable journalism by considering the trade-offs, challenges and opportunities related to various legislative interventions, with an eye to developing better practice regulatory standards, and a clear roadmap for how institutions should promote quality journalism.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThis event is sponsored by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation ( https://knightfoundation.org/ ).\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSymposium Agenda\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFriday, March 3\nto be live-streamed\n9:30 am – 9:45 am | Opening and Introduction\n9:45 am – 10:30 | Keynote\n10:30 am – 12:00 pm | Panel: The Platformization of Journalism\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm | Lunch\n1:00 pm – 2:30 pm | Special Issue Presentation: Platforms, Data, and the Information Ecosystem\n2:30 pm – 2:45 pm | Break\n2:45 pm – 3:45 pm | Breakout Conversations\n\nRoom 1: Break them up or harness them?\nRoom 2: Independence, and Biting the Hand that Feeds You\nRoom 3: Supporting Journalism or Supporting Misinformation?\n\n3:45 pm – 5:15 pm | Panel: Regulation and Platform Responsibility\n5:15 pm – 7:15 pm | Reception\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSaturday, March 4\n9:30 am – 10:45 am | Panel: The Future of News\n10:45 am – 11:00 am | Break\n11:00 am – 12:00 pm | Panel: Understanding our Options\n12:00 pm – 1:00 pm | Lunch\n1:00 pm – 2:00 pm | Breakout sessions: Blue Sky Thinking for Sustainable Journalism\n2:00 pm – 2:15 pm | Break\n2:15 pm – 3:30 pm | Regroup and Present/Discuss\n3:30 pm – 4:00 pm | Wrap up and next steps\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nConfirmed Participants\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJulia Angwin, The Markup\nJesse Brown, Canadaland\nJosé María León Cabrera, GK.City \nAisha Counts, Protocol\nJennifer Dixton, Loyola University Chicago\nJoan Donovan, Harvard Kennedy School\nJesse Gabriel, California State Assembly\nAmy Gajda, Tulane Law School\nMelinda Henneberger, The Sacramento Bee\nMichael Karanicolas,  UCLA School of Law\nDavid Kaye, UC Irvine School of Law\nFrank LoMonte, University of Florida\nRyan Mac, The New York Times\nA.
