The media industry is in a state of emergency: false claims, fake news, alternate facts. In today’s media climate, two-thirds of Americans say disinformation is a problem on par with gun violence and terrorism. Join the Glen M. Broom Center for Professional Development of Public Relations as it hosts the 3rd annual Allen H. Center Distinguished Lecture in Public Relations to learn from keynote speaker John Kirby how to combat disinformation in the media. CNN analyst John Kirby has worked both sides of the media trenches. He served as the top spokesman for the Navy as the Navy Chief of Information, spokesman for the Department of Defense and as the U.S. State Department spokesperson after his retirement from the Navy.
