When we think of reporters on the front lines, we often think of countries ravaged by war. But we can all agree that the pandemic has also felt like a battle-ground with its own share of chaos, upheaval, and suffering. So much has been in flux for the higher education sector over the past few years that the one constant that many of us have relied upon is excellent reporting and journalism. This episode's guest, Karin Fischer, has in many ways served as the eyes and ears for our industry, bringing us timely and candid conversations and breaking news. A chronicler extraordinaire, Karin is a longtime higher-education journalist with a focus on international education, including American colleges' activities overseas, the globalization of the college experience, study abroad, international-student recruitment, and the experience of international students in the U.S. Karin's work has appeared in the Chronicle of Higher Education, the New York Times, EdSource, the Washington Monthly, and University World News and elsewhere. She also publishes a weekly newsletter on global education, Latitudes. Episode Themes: - What draws Karin to the world of international higher education, and can we even talk about higher education without addressing its global dimensions? - Karin's early experiences of studying in the US and how this has shaped her understanding of international student issues today - How the pandemic has affected the work of journalists like Karin - A behind-the-scenes look at Karin's reporting and writing process--from ideation to production--and of what it is like for a journalist to report on this rapidly evolving and constantly changing world of higher education - Karin's reflections on some of the most compelling and challenging stories she has reported on over the years - Who has influenced Karin and her words of advice for the next generation of reporters and journalists Episode Resources: Follow Karin: Twitter Subscribe to Karin's newsletter The Poynter Institute The Chronicle of Higher Education My book: America Calling: A Foreign Student in a Country of Possibility Newsletter sign-up: www.rajikabhandari.com LinkedIn: @rajikabhandari Twitter: @rajikabhandari

Identitätsdiskussionen, Gendersprache, Ehe für alle: Manfred Schreiber fühlt sich von der gesellschaftlichen Entwicklung überrollt. Er hat häufiger den Eindruck, dass ihm Medien, und vor allem der Deutschlandfunk, vorschreiben möchten, was er zu denken habe. Über die kulturellen Veränderungen im Land und die Frage, inwieweit Medien diese Veränderungen abbilden und möglicherweise sogar vorantreiben, diskutiert Manfred Schreiber mit Karin Fischer, Leiterin Aktuelle Kultur im Deutschlandfunk, dem Kommunikationswissenschaftler Martin Emmer von der FU Berlin und Brigitte Baetz von @mediasres.

Innerhalb der geltenden Grenzen der Meinungsfreiheit müsse vieles möglich sein, sagte der neue Präsident des deutschen PEN, Deniz Yücel, im Dlf. Die Freiheit des Wortes müsse auch für Ansichten gelten, die man nicht teilt, kritisiert oder sogar verabscheut - sonst gäbe es keine Meinungsfreiheit.

Nachrichten, Gespräche oder Dokus sollen informieren und zur Meinungsbildung beitragen. Aber was, wenn sie die öffentliche Meinung manipulieren oder verzerren? Die meisten Klimaforscherinnen und -forscher halten zum Beispiel die Erderwärmung für menschengemacht. Ist es ausgewogen, wenn die Medien konträre Meinungen Einzelner dagegenstellen? False Balance heißt das Phänomen, wenn durch redaktionelle Auswahl von Gästen und Standpunkten der Stand der Wissenschaft oder die Realität verzerrt werden. Hörer Gernot Buth hat genau das in einer Sendung des Deutschlandfunks beobachtet. Zusammen mit Karin Fischer, Leiterin Aktuelle Kultur im Deutschlandfunk, dem Kommunikationswissenschaftler Sven Engesser und Stephan Beuting aus der Medienredaktion diskutiert unser Hörer, wann wir von False Balance sprechen können und wie wir sie möglichst vermeiden. www.deutschlandfunk.de, Themenportal Nach Redaktionsschluss Direkter Link zur Audiodatei

Beuys sei ein großartiger Künstler, der jedoch auf vielen Irrwegen unterwegs war, sagte der Künstler Jonathan Meese im Dlf. Die Kunst sei der Heiler, nicht der Künstler ein Schamane.

Wird die Singularität des Holocaust durch die Erinnerung an die Opfer von Völkermord oder Sklaverei in Frage gestellt? Nein, sagt der Historiker Felix Axster. Die stärkere Erinnerung an den Kolonialismus führe in Deutschland aber zwangsläufig zu einer "Neuaushandlung der Erinnerungskultur".
