The crisis in u.s. - china media coverage

 We encourage our members and colleagues to watch footage from the Overseas Press Club's June 15 event in which Bloomberg News Senior Editor Jodi Schneider moderated a panel of three prominent journalists on how China effectively expelled them or pressured them to leave the country. 

Chris Buckley of the New York Times, Yvonne Murray of Irish public service broadcaster RTÉ, and Gerry Shih of the Washington Post explain why China is harming its own self interests in forcing out Western journalists and what media organizations should do in response. The very informative session should give us all food for thought on the challenges of covering authoritarian countries.
