Kumpuris Distinguished Lecture with Martin Baron and Walter E. Hussman, Jr.

This program was held on Tuesday, April 9 at 6 p.m. CT. This Kumpuris Distinguished Lecture featured Former Washington Post Executive Editor and Author Martin “Marty” Baron joined veteran newspaper publisher Walter E. Hussman, Jr. in conversation at the Clinton Presidential Center. The pair discussed Baron’s book, “Collision of Power: Trump, Bezos, and the Washington Post,” an insider view of the Washington Post’s evolution from a family-controlled business to a Jeff Bezos enterprise. Just a few years after this transition, Donald Trump was elected President of the United States. The capital’s newspaper, now owned by one of the world’s richest men, was presented the challenge of reporting on a president who had campaigned against the press as the “lowest form of humanity.” In “Collision of Power,” Baron recounts this with the tenacity of a reporter and the sure hand of an experienced editor. The result is elegant and revelatory―an urgent exploration of the nature of power in the 21st century.
