This class is super engaging and hands-on. If you're at all interested in journalism and media, it's a great crash course focusing on a lot of important ethical case studies. It's largely discussion- and debate-focused, so it's fun to listen to and talk with other students in the class. The workload is pretty light – just a weekly discussion post and two exams that ask you to take a stance on a given case and defend it. Abbe has a lot of experience working in journalism (she used to write for the LA Times and has a Pulitzer Prize) so she offers really interesting insight.
