Tuesday is National News Engagement Day. It's a day to encourage people to read, watch, like, tweet, post, text, email, listen to or comment on news, says the National News Engagement Day website, which offers resources for participation in the day.

the public about the press’ principles, process, watchdog role and
First Amendment rights." (Read more)
