From 12-15 October, Yosuke Buchmeier participated in an international roundtable on media and journalism at the 2023 Union for Democratic Communications (UDC 2023) conference held at the University of Pennsylvania’s Annenberg School for Communication. This panel brought together key contributors for a wide-ranging dialogue about news neglect, censorship and agenda-cutting around the globe, particularly including perspectives from the US, Germany, and Japan.
