AP’s top editor: We need ‘good old-fashioned facts’
As she accepted the William Allen White Foundation National Citation for outstanding journalistic service at the University of Kansas on Thursday, AP Executive Editor Sally Buzbee outlined three guideposts news organizations must use to navigate the future of journalism.
The challenge of brevity in the digital age
News in the digital age comes in short -- often very short -- bursts, straight to our mobile phones, smart watches, tablets and computer screens. Sometimes these short takes are all an audience will read, not the longer story that follows. That’s why we need to get them right.
How and when we work with outside groups
In some cases AP works with nonprofit foundations and other news organizations that share and support our mission of objective, unbiased newsgathering.
Gaining access and trust in an era of ‘fake news’
A year into the Trump presidency, Washington Bureau Chief Julie Pace addressed media bias, the state of press access in the current administration and how news organizations can regain public trust in an era of so-called fake news.
The fight against fake news
As part of its broader fact-checking efforts, The Associated Press announced Thursday that it will work with Facebook to help identify and debunk trending "news" stories being shared online that are false.
