SUMMARY:Free Press in a Free Society
DESCRIPTION:In Partnership with JCRC of Greater WashingtonFeaturing a Distinguished Panel of Journalists:Marvin Kalb\, veteran journalist\, author\, and Founding Director of the Shorenstein Center on Media\, Politics and Public Policy at Harvard University’s Kennedy SchoolJosh Kraushaar\, Editor-in-Chief\, Jewish InsiderHayvi Bouzo\, Co-Founder and Host\, YallaModerator: Vicki Fishman\, Director of Virginia Government and Community Relations\, JCRC of Greater Washington \n\n\n\nA free press is one of the bedrock principles of American democracy. However\, in recent years\, amid extreme polarization\, the media has come under scrutiny for how they deliver the news\, while public figures have demonized the journalism industry and stoked anger among viewers. \n\n\n\nOnce-revered journalists like Murrow\, Cronkite\, Woodward and Bernstein have been replaced in part by a new generation of news professionals who emphasize social media views and sensationalist commentary over accurate and well-sourced information. \n\n\n\nOur distinguished panel of diverse journalists will discuss how we arrived in an era where the weaponization of information has become commonplace in media and the public discourse. We’ll also assess whether the Fourth Estate can still be a beacon of truth in our deeply divided society and what can be done to regain the trust of skeptical consumers.  \n\n\n\nCheck in & join us for light refreshments at 10:30am in the Community Room. \n\n\n\nAn audience Q&A will follow the panel discussion. \n\n\n\nA book sale & signing by Marvin Kalb on his 18th book\, “A Different Russia: Khrushchev and Kennedy on a Collision Course\,” will take place after the event. (Note: Book price is $20; Mr. Kalb will accept cash and check payments.) \n\n\n\nFee: $15 JCC Members; $20 Non-Members (includes refreshments) \n\n\n\nNeed registration support? Contact 703-323-0880 or 703.537.3068.
