The Center for Public Interest Journalism recently organized our latest community conversation, hosted this time at the Mayfair Community Development Corporation in Northeast Philadelphia.

In these extended video interviews, we hear from Joe DeFelice of the Mayfair CDC, Dan Geringer of the Philadelphia Daily News and Shannon McDonald of WHYY’s NewsWorks.

The Center has been leading a series of conversations on news coverage of diverse communities in Philadelphia, including previous events at the Media Mobilizing Project, Norris Square Civic Association, Mother Bethel A.M.E. Church and Asian Arts Initiative. The events have been moderated by Temple Journalism Professor George Miller.
