SUMMARY:Do Words Matter? Journalism\, Communication and Alternative Truth
DESCRIPTION:White House adviser Steve Bannon has labeled the press the “opposition.” President Trump called them “the enemy of the American people.” What does this mean in a country in which democracy hinges on a free press? \nThe Luskin School is committed to the essential value of information and its effective communication through words. In a world in which journalists’ words “don’t matter\,” what happens next? \nJoin us for an examination of communication in the Trump era — a look at how the news media covered the 2016 campaign\, how Trump’s followers try to redefine the truth\, and the challenges of covering the White House today. \nThree panels will feature scholars from UCLA and elsewhere\, joined by media representatives from outlets such as USA Today\, the New York Times\, the Washington Post and the Los Angeles Times. They will examine the changing media landscape and its impact on coverage of the 2016 election and the Trump administration that resulted. The daylong event will conclude with a Luskin Lecture by Ray Suarez\, host of Inside Story on Al Jazeera America and a journalist with first-hand experience covering Donald Trump. \n12:30–2 p.m.\nThe 2016 Campaign and Media Impact\nDid mainstream media get it wrong in the 2016 presidential election? \n2:30–4 p.m.\nThe Face/Place of Media in the Trump Era\nWith a hostile White House\, how should reporters do their jobs? \n4:45–6:15 p.m.\nTruth or Trolls\nTruth in the Trump era; how online trolls turned one journalist’s life upside-down. \n \n7–8:30 p.m.\nLuskin Lecture: What an ‘Enemy of the American People’ Has to Do Now \nIn September 2017\, Ray Suarez will begin an appointment as the McCloy Visiting Professor of American Studies at Amherst College. He was recently the host of Al Jazeera America’s daily news program\, Inside Story\, and previously worked as a correspondent and anchor at the PBS NewsHour. Before PBS\, he was the Washington-based host of NPR’s Talk of the Nation. \nAlso an author\, Suarez wrote the companion to the PBS documentary series\, Latino Americans. He published an examination of the relationship between religion and electoral politics\, “The Holy Vote: The Politics of Faith in America.” His first book\, “The Old Neighborhood: What We Lost in the Great Suburban Migration\,” examined decades of transition in urban America. \nSuarez holds a BA in African History from New York University and an MA in the Social Sciences from University of Chicago. \nPresented by the UCLA Luskin School of Public Affairs in partnership with the Department of Political Science \nParking:  Available in Structures 7 or 8 on the UCLA campus \nTransit: Big Blue Bus\, Culver CityBus 6 and Metro Expo Line \nRSVP is required by May 23rd\, 2017.
