Ted Koppel Moderates a Panel of Leading Journalists on Covering War For America

On Wednesday, November 13, 2002, four renowned journalists – Dexter Filkins, The New York Times, Seymour M. Hersh, The New Yorker, Johanna McGeary, TIME, and Bob Simon, CBS News – will participate in a panel discussion on a topic of increasing relevance and urgency: the role of the press and the First Amendment during wartime. In an evening intended to honor the countless journalists who have covered modern wartime, the panelists will talk about the challenges and perils of reporting on military actions in the farthest-flung and often most perilous corners of the world.
