Media Center Friday Speaker Series: Sports reporting
Friday, October 16, 2020
Noon – 1 p.m. PT

Sports reporters got a curveball thrown their way when the pandemic put the entire world of athletics on hold. As leagues began to restart their seasons — almost all crowd-free — athletes also began a movement to stand in solidarity with racial injustice in the wake of more police killings of Black people. Join The Athletic’s Rich Hammond, the Orlando Sentinel’s Julia Poe and Bleacher Report’s Mirin Fader to discuss sports coverage in 2020. Moderated by USC’s Saba Hamedy.
