Amazing work by students in our media production and design program who spent the year collaborating with community partners.
Great event right now @JSchool_CU, the annual capstone event for students in the Bachelor of Media Production and Design program. Today is a showcase of the student collaboration projects with eight community partners. Students used an array of digital platforms to share stories.

Crucial for journalists to cover the restrictions placed on media during this election. This is a story about our democracy, not just about journalists. Outrageous for Poilievre to drastically curtail media and label determined journalists as "protestors." youtube.com/watch?v=QHEp4d0A…

So, I spent a little time diving into the ownership of the underlying websites promoting these glaringly fake tweets on Canadians' timelines. Guess where they're registered?

This is a good time of the year for fans of American football. Ever wonder about the concussions, and how they could be avoided? Here's 25th Hour journalist Max Mezo's story about a class between culture and safety. @CapitalCurrent @JSchool_CU capitalcurrent.ca/guardian-c…

And that's a wrap for me. Couldn't have asked for a better 25th Hour team to round out my time @JSchool_CU . You can watch their latest episode here: capitalcurrent.ca/the-25th-h… Look for their journalism in the years to come!

When an elected official such as the Premier is part of a major event in the building that houses Canada's original journalism school, expect journalism students who produce news for our radio, TV and online publications to find you and ask questions. Kudos to these journalists.
Glad to see journalism students @JSchool_CU take the initiative to catch up with Premier Doug Ford after he helped launch Carleton's new nursing program. When the Premier slipped out a side entrance with no media availability, journalism students scrummed him in the garage. Bravo
