This panel event provides insight into the world of journalism and trauma and the role that trauma plays in the life of the journalist, who may encounter highly charged emotional events and distressing images on a regular basis. What coping mechanisms are used when a journalist is confronted with such experiences? What are the costs of succeeding in a career where trauma and its aftermath are experienced and witnessed by those who bring the news to our television screens, newspaper front pages and social media feeds? Drawing on the first hand experiences of senior journalists, this event brings together journalism and psychoanalysis to explore the complex and difficult relationships between trauma and journalism in the late modern world.
Speakers include
Gavin Rees
Director of the Dart Centre for Journalism and Trauma
Helen Long,
Reuters News Editor, Producer and Journalist
in conversation with
Sally Weintrobe
Psychoanalyst
