The American Press: are they truth sayers? Advisors to guide our votes? Neutral eyewitnesses? Or are they simply lost somewhere in between?Against the backdrop of the 2024 presidential election, this panel event (co-hosted by American Public Square and KCUR 89.3) will feature a discussion on the press’s role and influence on U.S. elections – diving into questions about whether the press continues to serve the basic principles that our founders envisioned, the role of local newsrooms and Americans’ views on the role and responsibility of the press.
