SUMMARY:Evangelicals and the Media
DESCRIPTION:American evangelicals have a long history of engagement with the media\, dating back to Great Awakening of the late eighteenth century. Today evangelical groups are active in all media\, from the Internet and cellular telephones to print journalism\, broadcasting\, film\, and multi-media entertainment. In this Forum\, our speakers discuss the social and political impact of the evangelical movement’s use of media technologies. Gary Schneeberger is special assistant for media relations to James Dobson\, founder and chairman of the evangelical group Focus on the Family (www.family.org). Diane Winston is the Knight Chair in Media and Religion in the USC Annenberg School for Communication and author of Red-Hot and Righteous: The Urban Religion of the Salvation Army. The Forum will be moderated by the Rev. Amy McCreath\, MIT’s Episcopal chaplain and coordinator of the Technology and Culture Forum at MIT (web.mit.edu/tac).
