The Rules of Engagement: Advocacy and Emotion in Journalism and the PressThis panel discussion is part of the College of Communication's 2005 two-day celebration of the 20 BU alumni who have won journalism's top honor, the Pulitzer Prize, since 1972. Three Pulitzer-winning journalists and alumni, Stephen Kurkjian (CAS'66), Mark Thompson (COM'75), and Helen Ubinas (COM'94), ponder the conventions of modern journalism in an insightful, occasionally heated discussion that debates the question: does coverage of recent high-profile events suggest journalists are straying from values like balance and detachment?

Hosted by College of Communication on November 18, 2005.
