Does Journalism Still Matter?

David Fahrenthold, winner of the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting, has honed an expertise on scams and malfeasance in the world of nonprofits.

He will explore the impact of political and investigative reporting in the modern era and illuminate his investigative reporting techniques in a dinner conversation with Emmy award winner Mary Ann Ahern of NBC Chicago.

This event honors the legacy of David S. Broder, a University of Chicago alumni who changed the game of political reporting in Washington. His columns on the Watergate scandal inspired his nickname “Dean of the Press Corps” and earned him the 1973 Pulitzer Prize for commentary.
