On September 27, join the Mississippi Humanities Council and the Sun Herald at Bacchus On The Beach for “Ideas on Tap: Fake News? Public Trust in the Media.”
This special Coast edition of Ideas on Tap will focus on the role of community journalism in our society and how things like “fake news” and economic constraints affect journalism’s connection to us. Hear from panelists Stan Tiner, Evelina Shmukler Burnett, and Anita Lee as they share their thoughts on these–and many more–topics. Brad Kessie will moderate.
Ideas on Tap is an informal happy hour program that encourages people to come together in a casual atmosphere and talk about important, relevant issues in a humanities context. The MHC will provide appetizers and attendees are welcome to purchase their own drinks. As always, this event is free and open to the public.
This program is supported by the The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation’s “Democracy and the Informed Citizen” initiative, in partnership with the Federation of State Humanities Councils.
