SUMMARY:TV News in Transition
DESCRIPTION:No aspect of television has changed more decisively in recent years than its news programming. The proliferation of news channels\, the passing of the last generation of news anchors bred in the era of the broadcast networks\, the appearance of partisan outlets such as Fox News\, the fragmentation of the audience\, the relative indifference of the digital generation to television news programming of any sort – these powerful and perhaps disturbing changes will be among the topics discussed at this Forum. Our speakers have extensive first-hand experience of the recent history of television journalism. \nSpeakers\nJuju Chang has worked in television news since 1991 as a producer and on-air correspondent. She is currently based in New York as a correspondent for ABC’s 20/20. \nNeal Shapiro joined NBC News in 1993 after 13 years as a producer and executive at ABC News. At NBC he served as director of news operations of MSNBC where he helped to shape its cable programming and its innovative web site. He was named president of NBC News in 2001\, a post he held until September\, 2005. \nModerator: Stuart N. Brotman is a visiting scholar in Comparative Media Studies at MIT. Previously\, he was president and CEO of The Museum of Television & Radio. An attorney\, Brotman is the author of several books\, including Communications Law and Practice\, now in its 20th printing.

SUMMARY:David Milch\, TV's Great Writer
DESCRIPTION:David Milch has been called television’s first artistic genius\, its great writer. His powerful dramas have troubled the censors in the networks and in Congress and have explored human weakness and violence in disturbing and artful ways. One of television’s most honored writers\, his credits include Hill Street Blues\, NYPD Blue (co-created with Steven Bochco) and the pioneering HBO series Deadwood. In this Forum\, Milch will discuss his career as a writer and creator with Forum Director David Thorburn\, a historian of television who knew Milch as a Yale student. The session will include clips distilled from Milch’s best work.
