Aug 2nd 2018

In April, South Side Weekly Radio took over our newsroom to tell you about the program’s origins, why they do community radio, and how they put out a weekly podcast. Then they asked you: what do you want to see from community radio?

This summer, they’re leading a series of workshops designed to teach the tools of radio to anyone who wants to create their own. At our 72nd #PublicNewsroom, Executive Producer Erisa Apantaku will lead a training on interviewing. She’ll go over the different formats of audio interviews, discuss best practices when doing an interview, and cover editing basics.

This workshop is open to all, regardless of skill level. If you have a particular interview you’re interested in pursuing, bring it to the newsroom!


This event is part of City Bureau’s #PublicNewsroom programming, a series of free, weekly workshops and discussions aimed at building trust between journalists and the communities they serve while shaping a more inclusive newsroom.
