POSTS STORIES REELS

🔎 Uncover the Truth with Open-Source Investigative Journalism

From satellite imagery to social media deep dives, open-source investigative journalism is reshaping how stories are told—bringing hidden truths to light through publicly available data, videos, and online networks.

Until now, many journalists using these techniques have been self-taught. But the @memphisjrsm , in partnership with the @psrmemphis , is changing that with the new Open-Source Investigative Reporting (OSIR) master’s program! 📰💡

📌 What to Expect

✅ Hands-on training in open-source investigative techniques, data journalism, visualization & more

✅ A 12-month curriculum designed for journalists at all levels

✅ A summer internship at local, regional & national news outlets

✅ Funding opportunities through assistantships & partial scholarships

What's going on in Meeman? 👀

Students in Prof. Robinson’s Creative Social Video class spent the afternoon practicing three-point lighting setups, camera framing, and more to amp up their content creation skills. 🎥📷

The J+SM Equipment Room allows students to rent camera, lighting, and audio equipment free of charge to help bring their visions to life.
