  2. What is “fake news?”
  3. Is there such a thing as “unbiased reporting?”
  4. What is the best role for news reporters in a digital era?
  5. Does reporting by ordinary citizens actually give us better news?
  6. Will newspapers go out of business or become only digital?
  7. Is crowdfunded journalism going to be an important trend?
  8. Is our news coverage too narrow?
  9. How helpful is “fact checking” of speeches?
  10. What role should race play in American identity?
