About the workshop . . .

The church and the media have long had an uneasy relationship. This is not surprising, given that the church tends to be only in the news when it is bad news. Yet some of the tensions can be addressed by understanding the work of journalists and what their needs are, and by learning to work cooperatively with the media in good times as well as bad.

Many clergy, however, find this threatening. How are we to cultivate such relationships? What benefit can we hope to gain from doing so, and what are the risks?
