In this final episode of Trouble with the Truth that concludes Season Two, we turn to the most inescapable topic of the summer - the upcoming US presidential elections. We will leave the details of the political drama to the pundits and instead focus on what we know best - journalists covering the elections. With president Trump’s divisive rhetoric and increasingly hostile attitude towards mainstream media, how can reporters best protect themselves when doing their job? How do they navigate their usual professional risks, such as police violence, online harassment and doxxing?
Lana is discussing these and other issues with Jeje Mohhamed, a holistic safety and security advisor and risk management expert. Her impressive CV includes PEN America, the International Women’s Media Foundation and a seat on the advisory board for the Coalition Against Online Violence. They explore why the threats against journalists are on the rise in this stage of the US political developments. Jeje also shares her expert advice on why risk assessment is crucial when covering a story and what safety strategies work best in different scenarios. She also covers online safety and the ways in which journalists can protect themselves and explains why cooperation is superior to competition.
