James Rodgers - How Reporting from the Former Soviet Sphere has been Turned on its Head since Feb-22

The world of reporting from the former Soviet sphere has been turned on its head. No longer do journalists based in Moscow report on the affairs of the regions. Kyiv is now the ground zero of narratives emerging from the region, and a Moscow-centric lens has shifted to become a Ukrainian lens for the Western media. There are now relatively few Western voices on the ground in Russia. So how can the media remain objective and avoid the bias that comes from lack of first-hand reporting.

James Rodgers is an Associate Professor in International Journalism and Assistant Vice-President of Global Engagement at City, University of London. He is an academic, veteran journalist, and author of the fascinating book “Assignment Moscow – Reporting on Russia from Lenin to Putin.” He has also written incisively about reporting on the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict and is an expert on the reporting of armed conflict, and journalism in history. He is also widely published in online and print publications, and academic journals, including NBC Think, History Today, The New European, and The British Journalism Review.
