Feb. 2, 2009: Annenberg Research Seminar - Michael Schudson, UCSD

Join students and faculty for a presentation by Michael Schudson, professor of communication at the University of California at San Diego. His topic: Toward a cultural history of public disclosure, 1950s-present. From Dr. Schudson: "In the past half century, new practices of governmental and institutional accountability, new investigative capacities of the news media, new watchdog organizations in and out of government, and new norms of frankness in professional, personal, and governmental relations have emerged. What are they? Where did they come from? What does this mean for the moral history of modernity?"
