Each
spring, the CN assembles the incoming class of summer interns and
year-long fellows for an expenses-paid weekend-long seminar in
Washington, D.C. The seminar has two purposes: - To offer
practical training so that interns and fellows are well-prepared to get
to work on day one. Professional reporters, including former CN fellows,
offer advice on reporting, source cultivation, newsroom etiquette,
journalistic ethics, and multimedia platforms.
- To enable interns
and fellows to get to know both each other and professional reporters
so that they have contacts and friends at a variety of media venues.
