Medill Crain Lecture: "From Martin Luther to Rick Santorum"

Medill Crain Lecture: "From Martin Luther to Rick Santorum"

Why would acclaimed journalist Michael Massing, who writes about contemporary politics, media and international affairs, choose the Protestant Reformation as the subject for his next book? Join us for a surprising lecture and discussion about how events of 500 years ago parallel and inform the present, and how the tools of journalism can be used to unearth the past. Massing, author of “Now They Tell Us,” about press coverage of the war in Iraq, and “The Fix,” a critical study of the U.S. War on drugs, is a former executive editor of the Columbia Journalism Review and co-founder of the Committee to Protect Journalists.
