Covering immigration safely and with care

With immigration enforcement directives among the most politicized and contentious topics in the U.S., reporters on the beat face growing threats on the ground and online. Local and national journalists covering immigration have to navigate the need to protect themselves and their sources alongside increased pressure to get the story right. With violent clashes between protestors and masked federal agents, local and federal officials sparring in the public square, and vulnerable communities facing uncertainty during intensifying ICE crackdowns, journalists must cover these sensitive stories while keeping their own safety top of mind. The Institute offered a panel discussion with seasoned reporters and editors who shared their experiences in the field and newsroom, including: Guidance for maintaining digital safety while reporting on a sensitive and highly scrutinized topic How to prepare for assignments, protect sources and yourself, and what to include in your field safety kit An editor’s perspective on risk assessment and newsroom support How to balance public interest reporting with real-world risks Speakers Adrian Carrasquillo, national immigration correspondent and “Huddled Masses” newsletter author, The Bulwark Arelis Hernandez, national reporter covering the U.S. Southern border, Immigration, Texas and beyond, The Washington Post Jon Collins, senior reporter on the MPR News race, class and communities team, Minnesota Public Radio Michelle Zenarosa, editor-in-chief, LA Public Press Moderated by: Elliot C.
