In this episode of the Beyond Broadcast Podcast, proudly brought to you by WIZZFX, host Jamie Larson speaks with Mitch McCann , a fellow alum of the New Zealand Broadcasting School and US correspondent living in New York.
In this episode, Mitch McCann and Jamie look at his journey from small-town New Zealand to becoming a trusted international journalist based in New York. He discusses the challenges of reporting on major global events, the importance of empathy in journalism, and the cultural differences that shape his approach to news.
Also, they discuss the difficulties of moving overseas and building communities when being miles away from home and why having a good support network can foster these communities.
Finally they touch on how trust in media is more important than ever and why Mitch believes reflection in the industry could play a key role in improving this trust which has been lost over time.
