How responsible are the media for calling out a candidate’s untruths? Have the media employed a double standard in reporting on Hillary Clinton’s candidacy? What role has gender played? How have different media shaped (and misshaped) the campaign? What lessons should we draw from media coverage of this election? What changes need to be considered?
On Tuesday, November 1, tune in from 6:30 pm to 8 pm for a livestream of this sold-out, deeply engaged panel of political and media analysts one week before the most important election of our lifetimes. Sponsored by The Nation and the New School.
Introduction: Katrina vanden Heuvel. Speakers: Joan Walsh, Farai Chideya, Katha Pollitt, and Rinku Sen. Moderator: Laura Flanders.
