On May 25, 2017, Jim Wagstaffe delivered the Commencement Address at San Francisco State University’s Graduation. Speaking to the 2017 Journalism graduates, Jim delivered his speech entitled “Journalists as Modern Storytellers.” In the speech, Jim emphasized that journalists must be storytellers without whom entire communities could be ignored. He explained his view that “accurate storytelling in the modern age of improvisational truth is more important that at any time since the American Revolution.”
