Leave ‘neutrality behind,’ Soros-funded UT Austin journalism program saysThe “Solidarity Journalism Initiative” at University of Texas at Austin teaches students to “convey outrage” and and abandon neutrality with the funding of top tech companies and George Soros’ Open Society Foundations.The initiative, which is part of the University of Texas at Austin’s Center for Media Engagement, “helps journalists, journalism educators, and journalism students improve coverage of marginalized communities,” according to its website.“The people who know the most about an issue – based on lived expertise – are missing or minimized in news coverage,” according to the website’s Solidarity Reporting Guide.“The decision to report – or not report – on these conditions inherently leaves neutrality behind,” the Solidarity Journalism program states.The program began at UT-Austin in 2021, after Professor Anita Varma brought it from Santa Clara University. The College Fix reached out by email to Varma twice over two weeks but did not receive a response.The Fix reached out twice each by email to media relations at the Knight Center for Journalism as well as its founder, Professor Rosental Alves, and Director Mallory Tenore.
