Get tips from experts to best cover the election at free Sept. 14 workshop

Covering elections in your community? Get powerful tools to do the best job possible at a free workshop for Arizona journalists.

Veteran political reporters and even those whose beats don’t usually involve elections will be active in covering the November election. Be prepared for the challenge of newsgathering in an age of misinformation and learn from among the best ways to do your best job possible, presented by

“Covering Elections in the Age of Misinformation” is 8:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 14, in the famous Concho Room of the historic Westward Ho hotel, 618 N. Central Ave., in downtown Phoenix. RSVP for it here. Again, it’s free, and nonpartisan, a service of two longtime Arizona media service organizations, the Valley of the Sun professional and Arizona State University campus chapters of the Society of Professional Journalists and the First Amendment Coalition of Arizona.

For the 2nd consecutive year, JP Morgan Chase Bank served as our primary sponsor for the ALMA High School Workshop. In addition, Chase provided two financial experts to share with students their deep knowledge in budgeting, saving, creating sound credit, and staying alert to frauds and scams. Gracias to Chase Community Manager Christian Romero and Liz Avina, Chase Branch Manager, for sharing their wonderful consejos and knowledge with students. And a big shout-out to Chase’s Maura Saavedra Cordova, Vice President, U.S. Media Relations, for her inimitable work and commitment to this ongoing partnership with ALMA.
