Lecture “The Missiles On Our Land: Reporting on U.S. Nuclear Weapons”

Published: January 25, 2024; Aithor: Julia Sonrisa

The U.S. is embarking on its biggest nuclear weapons production project ever which will cost taxpayers nearly 2 trillion dollars. To investigate the dangers and risks of nuclear weapons policy, Scientific American teamed up with Columbia Journalism School professors, Princeton’s Program on Science and Global Security, and the Brown Institute for Media Innovation, to create Missiles On Our Land, a video documentary, a 5-part podcast, data visualizations, and print stories.

Join us at Columbia Journalism School’s Lecture Hall for a talk about nuclear weapons policies and risks and how to successfully report on big issue topics across multiple media platforms.
