The National Press Club, the world's leading professional organization for journalists, is teaming up with the Gerald Ford Library to look at where the news business is going and how to protect its core values.
The Dec. 3 event, The First Amendment, Freedom of the Press and the Future of Journalism, will begin at 7:30 p.m. at the library, 1000 Beal Ave. in Ann Arbor. It is free and open to the public.
Speaking on the panel will be:
Jonathan Wolman, editor and publisher of the Detroit News;
Omari Gardner, news editor/digital media at the Detroit Free Press;
Marla Drutz, vice president and general manager WDIV-TV in Detroit; and
Vincent Duffy, news director, Michigan Public Radio.
The panel will be moderated by Gil Klein, a veteran national correspondent, former National Press Club president and director of the Club's Centennial Forums program.
This forum is part of a nationwide conversation the National Press Club is holding during its 100th anniversary to look at where the news business is going and what news consumers should be demanding. Schedules and video highlights of forums in other states can be found on the Club's Web site: www.press.org.
The next forum will be on Dec. 8 in Naples, Fla.
