The first 100 days of the Trump administration were exponentially more frenetic for reporters than those of his first term, both in terms of the policies he enacted — often outside the established norms of Congress and the judiciary – and his increasingly fraught relationship with the media. Join a panel of journalists covering the White House for the scoop on the first 100 days of Trump’s second term. Moderated by Jon Karl, ABC News and featuring Annie Linskey, Wall Street Journal, Eliana Johnson, The Washington Free Beacon, and Zeke Miller, Associated Press. This event is the keystone for the IOP’s annual David S. Broder Journalism Week, which honors the legacy of a titan of journalism and University of Chicago alumni who changed the game of political reporting in Washington. His columns for the Washington Post on the Watergate scandal inspired his nickname “Dean of the Press Corps” and earned him the 1973 Pulitzer Prize for commentary.
