Two newsrooms agree to a week-long personnel exchange.

During their residency, participants report on the host newsroom’s editorial process, fact-checking protocols, decision-making hierarchies, and content creation practices.

Each team will then present its findings on the host network.

The MIC Documentary Crew

The MIC Documentary Crew acts as a neutral observer, capturing the process, behind-the-scenes decisions, key moments of friction, collaboration, and transformation. Using broadcast content and exclusive B-roll from both organizations, the final product will be a thought-provoking series or feature-length documentary.

Our ultimate goal is to rebuild trust in our news agencies and also help viewers take a critical look at how their news is made, while capturing the experience along the way.
