Rosine Smith Sammons Lecture in Media Ethics: Eugene Robinson
November 13, 2008
Eugene Robinson, associate editor and columnist for The Washington Post, will deliver the ninth annual Sammons Lecture in Media Ethics, presented by the Division of Journalism at the Meadows School of the Arts. Scheduled for the week following the presidential election, the lecture will offer Robinson's perspective on the close connections between politics and culture, and the way major trends are shaping not only our society but our neighborhoods and families. Robinson has worked at The Post for 28 years, during which time he has been city hall reporter, city editor, foreign correspondent in Buenos Aires and London, foreign editor, and assistant managing editor in charge of the paper's award-winning style section. A member of the National Association of Black Journalists, Robinson was a Nieman Fellow in Journalism at Harvard and has received numerous awards for his work.
