Show notes
Religion news doesn’t just live in print or in black-and-white. It lives and breathes on screen and on-the-air. Producers and correspondents of TV and radio broadcasts and podcasts will share the advantages and challenges when reporting on religion with visuals and audio. Religion is a topic rich with sights and sounds, but some stories present hurdles and are harder to tell without the written word. Being “on camera” makes it harder to find people willing to speak publicly especially with vulnerable communities. Since radio and podcast audiences are listening to a story, rather than reading it, producers have to stretch their own creativity to make a story resonate.
