The 7th annual Aspen Institute Symposium on Critical Issues in Journalism will be held October 31, 2012 at the U.S. State Department. The annual Symposium has been organized by the Communications and Society Program since 2006 as a part of the State Department’s Edward R. Murrow Program for Journalists, which brings more than 150 international journalists from more than 100 countries to the United States for a three week visit. This year’s Symposium will feature panels and a discussion with journalist Bob Woodward, who returns to this year’s Symposium to share his insights and experiences with the group.
