Meet the Press in Cleveland Park
Join a lively discussion of how the media cover local issues and events, and why – sometimes – they don’t. How do journalists view current issues that concern our neighborhoods? What are the important emerging stories elsewhere in DC that will affect us? What does it take to get your letter to the editor published?
All are welcome at the monthly public meeting of the Cleveland Park Citizens Association for "Meet Our Press! How Well Do Local Media Serve the Community?" with Mark Plotkin, WTOP radio; Judith Havemann, editor, Washington Post DC Extra; Davis Kennedy, editor/publisher, Northwest Current; and Kathryn Sinzinger, editor/publisher, The Common Denominator. The meeting is Saturday, June 7, 10:15 a.m., at the Cleveland Park Library, Connecticut Avenue and Newark Street NW. For more information, call the Cleveland Park Citizens Association, 202/362-4279.
DC Metro Action is published by Michael Schlesinger, a 32-year veteran of electoral and issue organizing who is committed to social justice and to increasing participation in the political process.
