Site that helps journalists cover poverty relaunches with new features

A website to guide journalists in reporting about poverty-related matters has relaunched with new features. The University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication first published Covering Poverty in 2009. The new website, now run by UGA's Journalism Innovation Lab, has all-new tips, tutorials, and examples of award-winning journalism and resources. 

Here are a few of the site's new resources:
  • An article reminding journalists about the big-picture issues to keep in mind when covering poverty.
  • A curated list of sources that provide important context for covering poverty.
  • A discussion between experts on the importance of word choice and sensitivity when reporting on social inequality.
