dc.description.abstractJournalists are becoming increasingly aware that they need to build relationships with the communities they serve. This paper explores the current discourses around community engagement, addresses challenges to this topic, argues for the importance of these practices and proposes techniques for carrying out community engagement within the context of Eugene as a representation of mid-sized cities. The proposed techniques emerged from interviews with six working journalists from Eugene, Ore., Los Angeles, Calif., Salt Lake City, Utah, and Boise, Idaho. This paper finds that engagement techniques can be promoted to create a formal infrastructure at an outlet or can be utilized by journalists individually.en_US
