Explore journalism in film this Wed., March 7, from 6-8PM, at NYU's DC campus!
Reporting in Washington is so glamorous that Hollywood wants in. Good and bad journalism make great and awful movies. It's more than The Post and All The President's Men. There's Shock and Awe, Broadcast News, Shattered Glass, The Pelican Brief, The Insider, Wag The Dog and much more. Some Washington old and new journalism hands talk about their favorite journalism movies that have a Washington dateline or scene and what makes them so good or so bad. What happens when your reporting is translated to the big screen? What does Hollywood get right and wrong about journalism in Washington? The guilty pleasures and the just plain guilty. Full films won't be shown, but clips will. Moderated by NYU journalism instructor Seth Borenstein.
