US Gaza protests put student journalists in spotlight
Student journalists were thrust into the spotlight this week, covering pro-Palestinian protests taking place at universities across the United States. They were plugged into the story in ways that national media organisations couldn't be. We discuss the media coverage of the protests and the challenge of reporting on them. FRANCE 24's William Hilderbrandt is joined by Annika Sunkara, a student journalist at Boston's Northeastern University; Álvaro Guzmán Bastida, a student at New York's Columbia University; and Luca GoldMansour, a graduate student in journalism at The City University of New York.
