"Journalism, Ethics, and Responsibility to
the Political Process."
Monday, 25 October,
7 PM - A Forum with Ray Hartman
and Ed Bishop.
Saint Peters City Hall, One Saint Peters Centre Blvd, Saint Peters,
MO
Cost: Free
Ethics is made most possible in a land of freedom
and democracy. Democracy is only as good as the quality of
information we have. Is our press still free? Are we
citizens getting the independent news that we need to keep America
free?
Ray Hartmann, Ed Bishop, and Bob Greenwell (Leader, Ethical Society)
will speak and participate in a panel discussion with the audience.
Ray Hartmann is known for his outspoken views on the television
show "Donnybrook." He is founder and former editor
of The Riverfront Times. Ed Bishop is Editor and General Manager
of the St. Louis Journalism Review, stationed at Webster
University. Both have extensive experience with the challenges
of journalism and the interaction with politics.
Bob Greenwell is Leader of Ethical Society Mid Rivers, carrying
on its tradition of nonpartisan political-social-ethical commentary.
The program is offered to the community free of charge by the Ethical
Society.
The program is planned to end at 8:50 p.m., leaving about 40 minutes
of time for socializing and networking with speakers and guests.
Refreshments provided.
