Journalists Make Choices! Second panel of guidelines: Treat elections like they matter more than sports scores! Demand that newsrooms improve their election coverage! 3/4

Journalists can defend democracy. Treat elections like they matter more than sports scores! • Prioritize substantive coverage of the issues that matter to voters' lives. • Make headlines accurate and informative, not clickbait. • Stop making predictions and pushing polls at the expense of issues coverage. • Celebrate and uplift election workers, voters, and the election process. • Don't set aside moral judgment when covering obvious lies and bigotry. • Hold politicians to account for their positions, statements, and behavior, as well as those of their party’s leader. We're demanding that newsrooms improve their 2024 election coverage. tiny.cc/prodemocracy2024 Logo: Media and Democracy Project
