Thursday, September 19, 2024
10:30 AM – 11:30 AM EDT
Location: Embassy EF (LL2 Tower)
Countering racial biases and disparities in news coverage is the essential work of all newsrooms, both a part of and distinct from the ongoing, if slow-moving, diversification of their workforces. Join this important conversation and learn how newsroom leaders at every level can ensure missing people and other sensitive topics are covered accurately and free of bias.

Navigation tip: The Embassy Rooms are in the International Tower and can be accessed through the Hyatt Lobby Level International Tower or from LL3.

  • From the Lobby Level: When you are facing the hotel registration desks, walk towards the right, past the gift/convenience store until you see the elevators on your right. The escalators will be past the elevators. You will go down two levels.

  • From LL3: Walk to the right side of this level (if facing away from the elevators/escalators and towards the central foyer area). You will go around the corner past the Canva Studio in Piedmont all the way down until you see the escalators and elevators. Go up one level.

  • You cannot access the International Tower if you are on LL1 or LL2.
