May 20: "Fact in the Age of Truthiness"
Gerlinger Alumni Lounge
University of Oregon, Eugene
Quite a few high-profile journalists have either been fired, suspended, or resigned in the past year over not being able to draw the line between news and opinion. Is this a simple conflict over the role of journalists within the organizations they work for, or a harbinger of a sea change in very way that journalism is being and will be practiced in the future. Join us for two thought-provoking panel discussions on the subject.
The John L. Hulteng Conversations in Ethics is an annual event made possible by the family of the late John Hulteng, former SOJC dean and professor, who set standards of journalism ethics that remain intact today. The event brings together students, professionals, and the public for an informed discussion of the ethical issues of the day as they pertain to the media and their constituencies.
