Date TBA

Data journalism is becoming standard practice. Data literacy is spreading across beats. J-schools are teaching R and Python. Local newsrooms are increasingly interrogating data before reporting.

This panel of journalism and tech leaders will share lessons and ideas about removing remaining barriers; localizing, sharing, and finding stories in data, and more.
