A Note from Mike: This hour-long episode contains an interview in which we get into some tough and sensitive topics, including a discussion of how yearbook and journalism students cover suicide. In this episode, I welcome master adviser Ellen Austin (The Harker School, Calif.) to the podcast for a discussion about supporting yearbook staffs in covering topics that are often perceived as sensitive, including everything from vaping to LGBTQ+ students, to how yearbooks identify transgender students and cover students who have died by suicide. We also talk about the wonderful opportunities we have to support our students' learning in student journalism, where so often they don't get it right the first time. These are topics we address regularly in our own lab at Tesserae, and I hope you find the conversation thought-provoking. For additional resources on covering suicide in student media, please take a look at this from the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma out of the Columbia Journalism School. Keep the conversation going with me at iteachyearbook@gmail.com— I'd love to hear from you. Find the podcast on Twitter at @YearbookWhys. Please share the podcast online or with friends in your yearbook network, or leave a review on Apple iTunes; it helps others find the podcast!

In this edition of MVP we sit down with Bruce Shapiro, the executive director of the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, a project of Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. We explore the many different challenges journalists encounter when covering a mass violence incident and how the Dart Center is preparing and coordinating efforts to help journalists with the difficult circumstances on the scene.

Since 2002, Rachel Dissell has been a reporter for the Cleveland Plain Dealer. During her 17 years at the newspaper, she has covered trauma and trauma victims and one major tragedy after another. Her career has focused on complex and emotionally draining issues such as the impact of violence on women and children, life-changing environmental topics, corruption and several instances of social injustice. Her reporting has instigated major policy changes, new governmental procedures, and legislation to protect the citizenry. Covering trauma victims and tragedies call for several special reporting techniques, according to Dissell. It often takes a special cautious approach and patience on the part of the reporter to get victims to tell their stories completely and thoroughly, she notes. A reporter often must approach a victim with caution not to scare them or push them into isolation, Dissell adds. She also notes that burn-out is a major factor facing reporters who spend their careers covering human tragedies. She discusses ways that she regains her perspective and her equilibrium after immersing herself in stories of violence and human turmoil. Dissell is a Dart Fellow at the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma at the Columbia Journalism School and she also has been a Health Journalism Fellow at Annenberg School of Journalism at the University of Southern California. Besides her full-time reporting, Dissell serves as an adjunct journalism professor at Kent State University, her alma mater.

The Global Humanities Institute also offered a workshop led by Professor Bruce Shapiro, Executive Director of the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma at Columbia University, on practical ways to incorporate self-care and ethical practice for trauma-facing researchers, establishing a basic framework for understanding how direct and vicarious trauma exposure affect both the subjects of research and researchers. This workshop considered basic self-care and peer support strategies.

This hour, we sit down with Pulitzer Prize-winning photojournalist Lynsey Addario. We talk about her career and her new book, Of Love & War, and learn about her upbringing in Westport, Connecticut.Later, we discuss the effects of trauma on journalists and other members of the media. Bruce Shapiro of the Dart Center at Columbia University joins us, and we also hear from you. Support the show: http://wnpr.org/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Finbarr O'Reilly spent 12 years as a Reuters correspondent and staff photographer based in West and Central Africa and won the 2006 World Press Photo of the Year. His coverage of conflicts and social issues across Africa has earned him numerous awards from the National Press Photographer's Association and Pictures of the Year International for both his multimedia work and photography, which has been exhibited internationally. Finbarr was based in Senegal for 8 years, spent two years living in Congo and Rwanda and his multimedia exhibition Congo on the Wire debuted at the 2008 Bayeux War Correspondent's Festival before then travelling to Canada and the US.  Finbarr embedded regularly with coalition forces fighting in Afghanistan between 2008-2011 before moving to Israel in 2014, where he covered the summer war in Gaza. He is a 2016 MacDowell Colony Fellow and a writer in residence at the Carey Institute for Global Good, a 2015 Yale World Fellow, a 2014 Ochberg Fellow at Columbia University’s DART Center for Journalism and Trauma, and a 2013 Harvard Nieman Fellow. He is among those profiled in Under Fire: Journalists in Combat, a documentary film about the psychological costs of covering war. Earlier this year, Finbarr, along with co-author, retired U.S. Marine Sgt. Thomas James Brennan (pictured above on the left, shortly after suffering severe concussion from an RPG round explosion), published a joint memoir with Penguin Random House about their experiences in Afghanistan entitled Shooting Ghosts. Their story about the unpredictability of war and its aftermath is told in alternating first-person narratives, and explores the things they’ve seen and done, the ways they have been affected, and how they have navigated the psychological aftershocks of war and wrestled with reforming their own identities and moral centres.  Finbarr is currently based in London.

If journalism is the first draft of history, the people reporting the news are often on the frontline of conflict, disaster and tragedy. Journalists, photographers, artists, camera operators and fixers are our eyes and ears in dangerous parts of the world. As part the #30DaysPF campaign, our panel explores the risks – physical, psychological, political - for foreign correspondents and the local fixers who work with them. As international bureaux are increasingly depleted and more foreign correspondence falls to freelancers, what measures are in place to protect and support them, particularly as journalists become high profile targets in terror campaigns? Hear from industry greats as they discuss the whole process from landing in a war zone, publishing their stories and then returning home. With Brian Thomson, SBS, Peter Stefanovic, Nine Network, Yaara Bou Melhem, independent broadcast journalist, Cait McMahon, DART Center for Journalism and Trauma, and moderated by Eric Campbell, ABC.

Interviewing traumatized people is no easy task. Zach Hirsch, a radio producer, and Bruce Shapiro, Director of the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, offer suggestions for treating victims with respect.

In many countries, investigative reporters face the threat of violence and physical harm. About a third of the nearly 700 journalists killed worldwide since 1992 were slain for exposing crime and corruption. In addition, the increasingly dangerous terrain for investigative journalism is a source of psychological stress for journalists. Bruce Shapiro, director of the Dart Center for Journalism and Trauma, will talk about psychological threats and the ways groups and individuals around the world have tried to counter those threats. Joel Simon, director of the Committee to Protect Journalists, will speak on campaigns to end impunity in the killings of journalists in Latin America, the Philippines and Russia. Kwame Karikari, head of the Media Foundation of West Africa (MFWA) as well as one of the founders of the Network of African Freedom of Expression Organizations (NAFEO) will represent African media concerns. Drew Sullivan will talk about cross-border investigations on crime and corruption in the Balkans. Moderator: Josh Friedman, director of International Programs, Columbia Journalism School Bruce Shapiro, executive director, Dart Center: Trauma and threats to the psychological well-being of investigative reporters Joel Simon, executive director, Committee to Protect Journalists: Anti-Impunity Campaigns in Latin America, Russia and the Philippines Kwame Karikari, head of the Media Foundation of West Africa (MFWA): The Situation in Africa Drew Sullivan, advising editor, Center for Investigative Reporting, Bosnia; Director Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina : Transnational investigative reporting on crime and corruption in the Balkans
