Description:These interviews provide another historical perspective about the change over the period of 19 months (so far) that has made up the pandemic. The project interviewed journalists to get this perspective and to learn about the trauma that comes with being a breaking news reporter and reporting on COVID-19 during the spring and summer of 2020, when breaking news journalists also covered racial justice protests and natural disasters. Interviews conducted for American University's Fall 2021 Oral History course by Elinor Aspegren.
