Reflect on a time when you might have shared a story with a group of friends or colleagues. When retelling the same story to a different group of friends, have you ever had the experience when an individual familiar with the story interrupts you by correcting some of the details you shared? Many people have experienced this situation in one form or another, where either you or someone you were conversing with inaccurately recounted information.

With this scenario in mind..

1) As we look back on how journalism serves to record history, discuss how often you have noticed inaccuracies, inconsistencies, or bias. Think of the news you consume. Share what draws you to this news source. Discuss your level of trust with this news source to provide you with accurate and relevant information.

2) As technology advances, conclude how you think it will affect the accurate and relevant recording and reporting of current events. What challenges will it create?
