The Fourth Estate is under unprecedented assault in the United States and in many parts of the world. Labeling the press as “enemy of the people”, dismissing reporting as “fake news”, and targeting specific journalists and outlets is a troubling trend for freedom of the press and democracy itself.
Award winning journalists Marvin Kalb and Ted Koppel will discuss Kalb’s book, Enemy of the People: Trump's War on the Press, the New McCarthyism, and the Threat to American Democracy. Carnegie President William J. Burns will introduce the conversation.
