Session 5: Sensational or Sensationalism? Avoiding Exploitation in True Crime Stories
Pamela Colloff has written about some of the most egregious wrongful convictions and high-profile crimes in America. Her work has received a slew of awards and global attention, and has led directly to multiple exonerations. The secret isn’t just dogged tenacity. She approaches every source and every story with sensitivity and compassion. In this session, Colloff will talk with Laura Beil, host of the “Dr. Death” podcast, about the right–and wrong–ways to report on the American justice system.
