You're invited! Our topic is “The Impact of News Media on Civic Engagement”. To reserve lunch, register by end of day Thursday, Oct. 2 at lwvlacrosse.org/program. Lunch is $20, or you can attend the program only for free at 12:00 p.m. A recording of the program will be posted on our website soon after the live event. Pre-paid lunches are nonrefundable. If you have any questions, please contact us at [email protected].
Local news reporting plays a critical role in the health of our communities—and our democracy. Veteran journalist Rusty Cunningham will discuss changes in local news coverage and the impact on civic engagement, government accountability, erosion of community connections and increased political polarization.
We hope you can attend!
