In a new live episode of Media Inside Out, host Sherri Hope Culver will discuss how the media sensationalizes tragedy. In the wake of the Las Vegas shooting, as well as the hurricanes in the Caribbean and Texas, it’s important to take a step back from nonstop media coverage to dissect how national tragedies are shaped in our minds by the news. Guests Lauren Kogen, Media and Communication Professor at Temple University, and Ellen Gray, the television critic for Philadelphia Daily News/Inquirer/Philly.com join Sherri Hope to discuss the topic.
