For the fifth year, the Connecticut Foundation for Open Government will convene a panel of top Connecticut journalists discussing how they landed the major news stories of 2020.

Join us for a behind-the-scenes look at the work of reporters, photographers and editors, which was made more difficult by the pandemic.

Major stories will include:

  • COVID-19’s impact on schools, high school sports, the economy, unemployment, businesses and higher education.
  • Lives lost to the coronavirus.
  • Ten years of gun deaths in Connecticut
  • Black Lives Matter and racial and social justice
  • Housing, poverty and exclusionary zoning
  • The 2020 election; and
  • State politics and Governor Ned Lamont
