The National Press Club, the world's leading professional organization for journalists, New York University's Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute and the Foreign Policy Association are teaming up to hold a forum on the future of journalism on Oct. 16.
The National Press Club Centennial Forum on the First Amendment, Freedom of the Press and the Future of Journalism will begin at 6:30 p.m. on the sixth floor of the Carter Institute at NYU, 20 Cooper Square. It is free and open to the public.
Appearing on that panel are:
Tom Curley, president of the Associated Press;
Dan Rather, former CBS News anchor, now host of HDTV Dan Rather Reports;
Jill Abramson, managing editor of the New York Times; and
Jay Rosen, media critic and NYU faculty member.
The panel will be moderated by Gil Klein, a veteran national correspondent, past Club president and director of the Club's Centennial Forum Project.
Hosting the event for New York University is First Amendment authority Stephen D. Solomon, associate director of the NYU Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute.
These forums are part of a nationwide conversation the National Press Club, www.press.org, is holding during its centennial year to look at where the news business is going and what news consumers should be demanding. The next forum will be on Oct. 21 in Portland, Oregon.
