Thanks to the support of the Cultural Activities Programme of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Communication and the Department of Journalism at the University of the Basque Country (UPV/EHU), a lecture entitled “Professional Association: Commitment and Guarantee of Quality in the Creation of Communication Content” was held on 17 October 2022 in the Faculty’s auditorium. The talk was given by the Vice-Dean of the Basque Association of Journalists, Ms Amaia Fano Zarragoitia, a journalist and communicator with extensive experience in various media outlets in the Basque Autonomous Community. The event began at 2.00 pm and was attended by around a hundred students from the Bachelor’s degree programmes in Journalism, Advertising and Public Relations, and Audiovisual Communication. Following a brief introduction by Professor Ainara Larrondo, the event’s coordinator, alongside Professors Koldo Meso Ayerdi and Jesús Ángel Pérez Dasilva, the lecture began, followed by an extensive and interesting round of discussion and questions from the students, who raised issues regarding the ethics of certain media outlets and the role of journalists in combating disinformation, amongst other key topics. The event concluded with a brief summary and reflection by the organising teaching staff on the importance of creating digital content in today’s media landscape, which is characterised by information overload among audiences, misinformation, and the loss of legitimacy and influence of certain media companies and brands.
