Valerie Belair-Gagnon Releases Book on the Impact of Social Media on Crisis Reporting

Valérie Bélair-Gagnon, executive director of the Information Society Project at Yale Law School, is the author of the book Social Media at BBC News: The Re-Making of Crisis Reporting (Routledge, 2015).

At Yale, I treasured being part of a close community of students, faculty, alumni, practitioners, and staff committed to understanding and critiquing the law. I draw on lessons I learned from that community every day in my career as an economic justice lawyer.”
