Who is a Journalist? NPC Professional Event April 8, 2005 9:30 AM Open to NPC members credentialed media only. More information
Event Date: Apr. 8, 2005 Event Name: Who is a Journalist? Event Type: NPC Professional Event Time: 9:30 AM Sponsored by: Professional Affairs Committee Event Location: Holeman Lounge Details: Who is a journalist? Now that anyone with a computer and an Internet connection can set up shop on the Web, the days when you could tell who was a reporter by looking for a press card stuck in a fedora are long gone. A writer for a conservative Web site got credentials from the White House, even after a committee of journalists turned him down. For several years, bloggers have been blurring the lines daily between journalists and activists. And now professional media blogs blur even those lines. So how do you know who's a journalist these days? A panel of journalists, bloggers and others will discuss the rules for who is what on Friday, April 8. Panelists include: Julie Hirschfeld Davis, of the Baltimore Sun, chairwoman of the Standing Committee on Correspondents for the House and Senate press galleries
Garrett Graff, editor, Fishbowl DC, the first blogger to receive White House press credentials
Jeff Gannon, formerly with conservative Web site Talon News, whose question at a presidential news conference focused attention on how he got into the White House press corps
Ana Marie Cox, editor of Wonkette.com
John Stanton with Congress Daily, who has written for National Journal about blogs and conservative news organizations
Matthew Yglesias, staff writer at The American Prospect and editor of yglesias.typepad.com
Mike Madden with Gannett News Service and co-chair of the NPC Professional Affairs Committee will moderate the program.
NPC members and credentialed media only. Reserve at (202) 662-7501.
