NPC Virtual Newsmaker: Harold Holzer, "The Presidents vs. the Press"

It is a story as old as the republic itself: the love-hate-tolerate relationship between America’s presidents and the journalists who cover them. On Tuesday, August 25, award-winning presidential historian Harold Holzer will explain how we got to this era of “fake news” and “alternative facts” with insights from his new book, “The Presidents vs. the Press: The Endless Battle Between the White House and the Media – From the Founding Fathers to Fake News,” at a National Press Club Virtual Book Event.

This 1-hour program will stream live at 1:00 p.m. ET and is accessible to both the media and members of the general public free-of-charge.

The event will include a discussion with the author, followed by a question-and-answer session with questions from the audience. Questions may be sent during the live event to [email protected].
