Three German broadcast journalists will discuss European media coverage of the Iraq war and their continent's viewpoints of U.S. involvement in the conflict during a panel discussion at the University of Colorado at Boulder.
CU-Boulder's School of Journalism and Mass Communication is sponsoring the talk, which will take place from noon to 1 p.m. on Monday, March 19, in room 218 of the Armory Building, located at 1511 University Ave. The event is open to the general public, but journalism students and faculty will get first-priority seating.
Journalists who will participate in the talk include Frank Durr of ARTE TV, a Franco-German cultural channel; Esther Broders of Deutsche Welle Radio; and Max Oppel of RBB Info Radio in Berlin.
Durr and Broders will spend the week in-residence at the school of journalism as part of Radio in Occupied Sector, or RIAS, a German-American journalist exchange program.
