The Fifth Estate: 21st Century Watchdogs

Join in person or via Zoom

October 15, 2023 @ 9:00 am – 10:00 am

Speakers: Mark Naymik, Managing Editor, News, Signal Cleveland digital newsletter; Phil Trexler, Editor-in-Chief, The Marshall Project-Cleveland.

With financial constraints on print newspapers of the traditional Fourth Estate, society has seen the rise of a Fifth Estate – digital media. How do digital journalists ensure accountability as watchdogs? What are they reporting? How do they make a difference?

Forums open to the community have been a distinctive part of UUCC’s tradition for many years.

During Forums That Matter, leading experts and leaders present current, thought-provoking forums on a wide variety of issues that affect us as individuals, the communities in which we live and the world beyond.

Attendees from both inside and outside the congregation exchange views and participate in stimulating question-and-answer sessions to create a stronger, more accountable, informed community.

The forums support the Unitarian Universalists’ fourth principle, “free and responsible search for truth and meaning.” They encourage personal reflection, social action and individual and collective growth for all who attend.

On the first and third Sunday mornings during fall and winter, the forums are held both virtually and in person at the Shaker Heights location. They break new ground in the continuing search for truth and importance of serving others.
