| In appreciation of journalists |
It's a long holiday weekend, so we'll keep this short and sweet: This season, we are grateful for journalists and the critical work they do to keep communities informed and hold power to account.
We hope you get some time off this weekend to spend with family and friends, though we know that can be challenging in this industry. Whether you're off or on the clock, we at Poynter thank you and send our gratitude.
Now, on with this week's training opportunities!
