A Slow News Podcast from Denmark

A group of young journalism students in Aarhus, Denmark, have launched the new podcast “Slow News.” They aim to give listeners an alternative to mainstream media, and more importantly, to give themselves time as reporters to seek out untold stories, investigate events in depth, and present new angles on current events.

In this first episode (above), I talk with Juliette Freysson about the concept of Slow News. She’s from Lyon, France, while the other students are from all over Europe: Denmark, Luxembourg, Germany, Bulgaria. In later episodes, they take a Slow approach to reporting on issues like how people deal with crises at home when they’re living abroad.
