JOURNALISM PROGRAM
The McCormick Foundation is committed to the idea that nothing is more critical to the vitality of democracy than a free, vigorous news media that provides citizens the information they need to make reasoned decisions.
With the rapid evolution of news media and the inundation of news and information sources, it’s more important than ever to develop savvy consumers of news. Today, the Foundation seeks to develop a more informed, news-literate and engaged citizenry by investing in relevant, quality content, educating news audiences to understand and appreciate the value of news content, and protecting First Amendment freedoms.
