A comic treatment of a tragically broken process in journalism
Hearken
Newsrooms are still using processes and mental models designed for the pre-internet era, writes Hearken CEO Jennifer Brandel. “To put it frankly: those old processes aren’t working well in an age where individuals are empowered with access to seemingly-infinite content,” Brandel said. “And poorly-designed processes create inaccurate information and lead to misguided decisions which ultimately breaks the system.” Hearken, along with cartoon artist Jean Cochrane, rethink the journalism process through a comic.
