We present a week of shows on the media’s reporting of global issues in our Covering the Lens series. How well-served were we on the way American media covered the war in Iraq? How has technology changed today’s coverage? We’ll ask those questions and more of journalists, media analysts and academics as they talk about the recent past and future of international news coverage.
