Coming Up in May 2026!
A Good News Story from the fast changing landscape of internet journalism:
Award-winning journalist David Beers founded one of Canada’s first digital news sites more than two decades ago.
Vancouver based, The Tyee, receives 1.3 million page views a month, due to its high standard, public interest journalism. This digital news site is self-sustaining thanks to thousands of supporting members.
Currently, when on-line disinformation, AI and autocratic politics threaten our democratic discourse, what does the Tyee’s experience tell us?
Attend this timely presentation to hear David explain the vital role public interest journalism plays in democracy, why it is endangered, and how his team is meeting the challenge. This is sure to be an informative and interesting evening!
