The “NEXT Ethics?” Poynter Kent State Media Ethics Workshop, hosted by the Kent State University school of Journalism and Mass Communication, will bring together professional journalists, professors and students to engage in a lively dialogue about media ethics and its role in an ever-changing online environment.

The workshop will not presume to create rules for media practitioners, but instead will try to create a foundation for further work and study. Please join us in helping media consumers and creators discuss key issues of online news and information.
You can watch a live stream of Thursday’s entire workshop (from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. ET); here is a full speaker schedule.

We will live blog two of the sessions:

  • 10 a.m.: Data Mining: You Can’t Always Get What You Want, with Adrian Holovaty of EveryBlock.com and and Sarah Cohen of Duke University (facilitated by Poynter’s Ellyn Angelotti)
  • 12 p.m.: New Issues, Enduring Values: Emerging Ethical Questions for Journalists, Paul Steiger of ProPublica (moderated by Poynter’s Kelly McBride)
