Author of the Pew Center's annual State of the News Media report to speak in Toronto next Tuesday

Samara, in partnership with Massey College, is hosting Tom Rosensteil, the director of the Pew Centre's Project for Excellence in Journalism in Toronto on Tuesday April 6th. 

This is the seventh year that Mr. Rosensteil and the PEJ have released the State of the News Media report, which chronicles and analyzes the "revolution occuring in how Americans get information." Mr. Rosensteil will present the findings of the 2010 report, which offers a general overview of the state of journalism as well as examinations of newspapers, online, TV, audio, magazines and ethnic media.

There are a small handful of seats still available. The event begins at 8:00 p.m. at the George Ignatieff Theatre, 15 Devonshire Place, University of Toronto. Please contact Joshua Knelman if you're interested in attending.

This visit is part of an ongoing series of seminars that seek to provide inspiring examples of innovations in public affairs journalism and create a gathering space for journalists and others interested in public affairs reporting to exchange ideas and learn from one another.

Our most recent seminar featured Paul Steiger from ProPublica. An edited video of his remarks is available here.
