Martin Baron, Dan Kennedy, and Paul Starr
Suffolk University Moot Court Room
For the nation's oldest continually operating free public
lecture series, the Ford Hall Forum
manages to stay admirably relevant, and today's discussion, "Public
Accountability After the Age of Newspaper," is about as relevant as it gets. As
we sift through the moist-eyed demagogues and outright lies around current
politics and policy, Boston Globe editor Martin
Baron joins Northeastern professor and former Phoenix staffer Dan Kennedy and Princeton professor Paul Starr to discuss the increasingly
desperate need for public accountability, and whether Twitter and YouTube will
ever fill that role. That's in the Moot
Court Room
at Suffolk University, 120 Tremont St, Boston
