On November 18, 2025 the New York Association of Black Journalist held a form at Hunter College in New York about coverage of the Sean Diddy Combs trial and sentencing hosted by National CBS News Correspondant Jericka Duncan.

The fedreal charges, trial, conviction and continuing appeals and civil matters were supposily going to answer the year of seculation.
Provide answers to the year orf rumors.

Address the good and the bad about a music man that has and still
impacts our culture.

Covering a Federal trial has barriers, walls that delays that require
a more active and creative nature for media coverage.

No phones, no cameras in the courthouse. Limits on who you can comtact and have discussions with during the trial and then there
is the changing of media reporting.

Legacy media, radio. newspapers and television now are comprting with bloggers, influencers, youtubers and tik tok warriors.

The debate, discussion, accountabilities and responsiblities of accueracy and ethics will continue long after this form.

Thank you to Hunter College, and everyone who made this event possible.
