dc.description.abstractThis paper examines current education reporting practices and the extent to which these practices are failing to meet ethical and journalistic standards. Based on research on the impact of education coverage on the public, I argue that the current portrayal of education in the news misrepresents education in the United States and undermines public support and investment in education. I then turn to existing journalistic techniques and practices to create five recommendations that help reporters use familiar tools to craft stores that are both more aware of ethical pitfalls and better represent journalistic values. I also provide examples throughout of how I have used these recommendations to navigate dilemmas in my own education reporting. These recommendations and examples can be utilized by reporters to create counterframes to traditional education coverage.en_US
