Season 1: Race and the News Media
Episode 6: Addressing the Past

In the Season One finale of “Roundtables on Race,” the Rev. Kathy Walker discusses news outlets that are examining their past and future,
especially around race-related news coverage. She is joined by two guests who
are leaders in organizations that are proving to be leaders themselves in
addressing past actions: Dave DeWitt, feature news editor for WUNC, North
Carolina Public Radio and NPR affiliate in the Raleigh/Durham/Chapel Hill area,
co-host of the podcast “Tested,” and member of WUNC’s Inclusion Diversity
Equity Accountability (I.D.E.A.) committee; and Sewell Chan, editorial board
chair and editorial page editor for the Los Angeles Times, and soon-to-be
editor in chief for the Texas Tribune.
