In today’s world, where news is often available in almost real time, news consumers as well as journalists face many challenges as they sort through the huge variety of sources.

The Mattapoisett Library is hosting a free discussion of how to decipher real journalism from fake news with Mindy Todd, Managing Director of Editorial & Host/Executive Producer of "The Point” on NPR’s local radio station WCAI and Paul Pronovost, Editor-in-Chief of the Cape Cod Times on Sunday, September 17 from 2-3 p.m. at the Mattapoisett Free Public Library.

Todd and Pronovost will discuss how news reporting has changed and how the public can determine credible news sources.

This event is sponsored by the Tri-Town Public Libraries: Mattapoisett, Rochester, and Marion.

The Mattapoisett Library is located at 7 Barstow Street and is handicapped accessible.
