The Press Under Fire
A panel on media and conflict in memory of Daniel Pearl to mark the third-year anniversary of Danny's death

Wednesday, March 2, 2005 – London, UK
7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m
The London School of Economics

PANEL
Moderator: Christiane Amanpour of CNN

• Kate Clark, BBC
• Ibrahim Helal, BBC (formerly of Al Jazeera)
• Gideon Lichfield, The Economist
• Walt Rodgers, CNN
• Steve Stecklow, The Wall Street Journal

While international news is more important then ever, the press is increasingly the target of attack. Please join us for a discussion on how the media reports conflicts, the protection of reporters in dangerous situations, press freedom, and the perception of Western media abroad along with foreign coverage at home.

The panel, in commemoration of Daniel Pearl on the third-year anniversary of his death, is a chance to reflect on the values for which Danny lived, and the risks that journalists around the world continue to face.

Organized by the Daniel Pearl Foundation and co-sponsored by the Overseas Press Club of America
