Peggy Holman: Journalism that Matters | Kosmos Journal

Peggy Holman, author of The Change Handbok, on learnings from her work with the Journalism that Matters Initiative:

If journalism’s old story was to provide people with information they needed to be free and self-governing, in the emerging story, journalism not only informs, but engages, inspires, and activates people to play their roles as free and self-governing citizens. ...

By adding “What’s possible now?” to the traditional five ‘Ws’ of journalism —  who, what, when, where, why, and how — stories call forth hopes and aspirations.
