How Indian journalists can cover the coronavirus outbreak safely

2021-11-10 2

For journalists almost everywhere in the world today, the #coronavirus pandemic is the biggest story. But it’s a story unlike any other, not least because doing even something as fundamental to journalism as going out to report is fraught with immense risk. So, how do journalists navigate this crisis, specifically in India?

To deliberate upon such issues, Newslaundry conducted a #webinar in partnership with the Committee to Protect Journalists. Those who spoke at the webinar included Colin Pereira and David Oades, journalist safety consultant and journalist safety advisor, respectively with the CPJ in London; Dhanya Rajendran, chief editor of the News Minute; Neha Dixit, independent journalist; and Manisha Pande, executive editor of Newslaundry.
