When we were in college, where did we get our information? From one of the three national networks or their local affiliates? From the Yale Daily News, or other print media? From our teachers, our parents, our peers? Or did we listen to Prof. Edmund Morgan, and seek out “original sources”? What information did we trust, and why did we trust it?

50 years on, where do we get our information, and why do we trust it? Is all news coverage biased? How much of it is really “fake news”? How did journalism standards develop over the years, and what has happened to them?

Join us as classmate Naomi Lewin moderates a panel that includes classmate Betsy Sullivan, who has over 40 years’ experience in daily journalism at the Cleveland Plain Dealer; Barbara Rockenbach, Yale’s Stephen F. Gates ’68 University Librarian; Jenna Flanagan, a PBS and NPR journalist and podcaster and Richard Chen, newly elected publisher of Yale Daily News.
