Webinar: Fighting for Open Records During the COVID-19 Crisis

Panelists will discuss specific records to ask for to investigate coronavirus response at all levels of government, and resources to help push back against agencies that say they can't fill requests during this crisis. Bring your questions, and register here.

Speakers include Jason Leopold of BuzzFeed News; Adam Marshall of the Knight Foundation and Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press; and Gunita Singh of Jack Nelson/Dow Jones Foundation and Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press.

This webinar is co-hosted by IRE and the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press, which is gathering and continually updating legal resources for reporters covering the crisis here [1].

The webinar is free and available to members and non-members of IRE. The recording can be viewed here [2].
