CCTV is pleased to be collaborating with The Berkman Center's Digital Media Law Project and Cyberlaw Clinic, along with MIT's Center for Civic Media, to offer a half-day forum entitled "Filling the News Gap in Cambridge and Beyond: Citizen Journalism and Grassroots Media" at the Cambridge Public Library on May 4th.
The Digital Media Law Project and the Cyberlaw Clinic will participate in a workshop addressing legal issues facing those who gather news. State and federal laws provide tools and protections on which reporters can rely in collecting the facts on which their reporting is based -- enhancing access to government records, shielding from disclosure certain communications between journalists and their sources, and ensuring that journalists can record the acts of public officials in public places. But, these tools and protections are subject to limitations that can frustrate newsgatherers and impede their ability to practice their craft. The session will explore some of the important protections available to citizen journalists and others in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the hurdles that reporters face as they engage in newsgathering activities.

Join us for this exciting event organized by Cambridge Community Television in celebration of the 5th anniversary of NeighborMedia, CCTV’s citizen journalism program; the Digital Media Law Project at Harvard's Berkman Center for Internet and Society; MIT's Center for Civic Media/Comparative Media Studies; and the Cambridge Public Library.
This half-day forum will explore the quickly expanding world of citizen journalism: how technology is fueling its growth, and how that growth is changing the way we see our world, enact change, and disseminate the news. People in communities around the world are taking the initiative to share stories that are left untold by the mainstream media.
The Citizen Journalism Forum will be held on May 4 at the Cambridge Public Library's Main Branch from 9:30 am to 1:30 pm and will include seminars on:
How Cambridge residents are filling the void in local news in our city;
The legal considerations facing citizen journalists; and
The tools and technologies being used by citizen journalists in Cambridge and beyond.
Exhibitors will be on hand with the latest tools and technologies available for community reporters, and attendees will learn how to tap into...
