Reporting Trauma: The Aftershocks of Trauma-Informed Journalism
Monday, March 24, 2025
6:00 pm - 7:00 pm ET 

For journalists, covering trauma and traumatic events comes with the job. This exposure can carry risks both physical and emotional, often revealing itself long after the news is reported. This is evident in current crises, and on 9/11 when reporters covering the human impact of the unfolding attack were soon enveloped in the story as the buildings collapsed. To discuss the interplay between trauma and journalism, Museum Director Clifford Chanin is joined by David Handschuh, former Daily News photojournalist, Judith Matloff, Senior Safety Advisor at the DART Center for Journalism and Trauma, and Jim MacMillan, Director of the Philadelphia Center for Gun Violence Reporting. Together, they will reflect on their experiences and explore how a deeper understanding of trauma has changed the field of journalism.
