Public Diplomacy Alumni Association, September 2008 Luncheon Meeting
Reserve your place now

Has the U.S. news media watchdog lost its bite?

Former CNN World Affairs Correspondent Ralph Begleiter reviews the state of the media in the United States, at the next luncheon meeting of the Public Diplomacy Alumni Association at the DACOR Bacon House, 1801 F Street NW, Washington, D.C., on Monday, September 22 at 11:30 am. Begleiter will explore implications for public policy of large-corporate control of media, trends toward interactivity with audiences, influence of the Internet and the reduction in analytical coverage. He will also discuss how these trends affected news media coverage of the runup to the war in Iraq.

Begleiter now serves as professor of journalism in the University of Delaware's Department of Communication in Newark, where he teaches communication, journalism, and political science. He has more than 30 years of broadcast journalism experience. During two decades as CNN’s world affairs correspondent, Begleiter was the network’s most widely-traveled reporter, visiting some 95 countries on 6 continents. He continues to travel, with university students to Cuba, South America, Turkey and Antarctica, and conducting media workshops in several countries under the auspices of the U.S. Department of State.
