Vibrant societies and healthy democracies rely on the free flow of ideas, but ensuring a free press is a constant struggle. For this session, a panel of journalists and experts explores the state of freedom of the press in the United States and around the world—and what it means for the future of democracy. 

Hosted and produced by the Karsh Institute of Democracy, and sponsored by VPM. Introduction by Megan Barnett, vice provost for academic initiatives at the University of Virginia. 

This event will be livestreamed simultaneously on VPM’s website.
