TCU’s Schieffer School to Host Star-Studded Panel of Newsies
1959 TCU grad Bob Schieffer will be hosting his annual Symposium, titled: “Obama and the Press: Is the media doing its job?”
Panelists scheduled to attend:
David Brooks, of the New York Times
Gwen Ifill, author of “The Breakthrough: Politics and Race in the Age of Obama” (also moderator and managing editor of PBS’ Washington Week
Andrea Mitchell, chief foreign affairs correspondent for NBC News
Mark Shields, nationally syndicated columnist and commentator on PBS’ Newshour with Jim Lehrer
That’s a pretty bad-ass lineup of journalistic luminaries! I wonder if I can get them all into Scat Jazz Lounge after the Symposium? I’ll bet Andrea Mitchell could drink my buddy Steve under the table.
