The Fourth Estate in the Age of Trump

At a time of political polarization and unprecedented attacks on the press, few are doing more to build trust in media institutions and hold the powerful accountable than Marty Baron, Executive Editor of The Washington Post. Immortalized in the Oscar-winning movie Spotlight, which told the story of his Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative team at The Boston Globe, Baron now leads an extraordinary newsroom that is racking up scoop after scoop amid the turmoil of the Trump era. Hear Baron discuss the news stories that will keep his Post colleagues busy in 2018 and his strategies for keeping readers informed and engaged in the age of “fake news” and “alternative facts.” Hear one of the world’s greatest journalists speak truth to power.

Discussion moderated by The Globe and Mail's Editor-in-Chief, David Walmsley.
