Behind the Scenes: This week in the News21 newsroom

Today in the News21 newsroom, reporters and editors gathered for a student-led brown bag discussion on investigative journalism.

News21 sent a team of reporters and editors to the Investigative Reporters and Editors conference last week in Boston, and those who attended shared with the newsroom helpful tools for more efficient, in-depth investigative reports.

Here’s a look at what the News21 team was up to today:
