ASU’s ‘The Beam’ launches first investigation on 3D weapons
April 16
A new investigation found the growth of 3D-printed weapons is an unexpected threat to schools and law enforcement.
The investigation was led by The Beam, a brand new multimedia, accountability news initiative based at the Howard Center for Investigative Journalism and the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication.
The reporting is led by professional journalists in residence, supported by student apprentices in a teaching hospital model.
Mark Greenblatt, Executive Editor, and Alice Driver, investigative reporter from The Beam, joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss the safety risks these weapons pose to schools.
