Norman Pearlstine, Chief Content Officer
Mandatory Credit: Bloomberg Politics and the Media Panel: Bridging the Political Divide in the 2012 Elections Breakfast NORMAN PEARLSTINE, CHIEF CONTENT OFFICER, BLOOMBERG, LP: Thank you very much to all of you for coming this afternoon for this panel discussion and welcome to the Bloomberg Link. This is a project that a number of my colleagues have been working very hard on to - to get in shape having had a similar facility in Tampa last week. And as Al Hunt is fond of reminding me, eight years ago, Bloomberg was sharing space as far away from the perimeter and I guess any press could be. I think sharing that space with Al Jazeera -- About four years ago, we certainly had a press presence in Denver and St. Paul, but this year, we're a whole lot more active and a lot more aggressive and I think that reflects all the things that Bloomberg has been doing to increase its presence in Washington where, in the last two years through an acquisition and a start up, we've gone from a 145 journalists working at Bloomberg News to close to 2,000 employees and that reflects in large part the acquisition of BNA last September but also the start up of Bloomberg Government, a web based subscription service. And so over the next few days, we welcome you to come back to the Bloomberg Link for a number of events and hopefully, you'll get a chance to meet a number of my colleagues in the process. I'm very happy that we are able to start our activities in Charlotte with this panel discussion today, not only because of the subject matter, which is so important to journalism and to politics, but also because, quite selfishly, it's given me a chance to partner with Jeff Cowan and Center for Communication Leadership and Policy in Los Angeles at Annenberg USC, which Jeff, I was happy to be a co-chair of your board so, it's good to be able to - each of us to convince the other we ought to do this. -

The Salem State Series stands now as one of the premier continuously running college lecture series in the country, attracting thousands of patrons annually. We plan once again to present notable speakers on subjects designed to inform, engage and encourage discussion within the community. We hope to count you among our supporters.

TRACING THE STEPS IN A HISTORIC ELECTION JEFFREY M. CHEMERINSKYt & KIMBERLY C. KISABETHtt "Well, the 2008 presidentialrace turns out to be turning a spotlight on questions about race and what Americans reallyfeel inside."1 INTRODUCTION What does it mean to have an African-American president? What did it mean to have an African-American effectively competing for and receiving the Democratic nomination and then ultimately vying for the presidency? Would race or racism determine the outcome of the election? Questions of race and its effects appeared throughout the 2008 presidential campaign in numerous forms, whether they be predictive- trying to forecast what impact race would have on the election-or rhetorical-in the candidate's or their surrogate's speeches or advertisements by the candidates or their surrogates where race was a common theme even if not overtly mentioned. The primary campaign season-in which Barack Obama faced a crowded field in contention for the Democratic nomination-featured then-Senator Joseph Biden's comment that Obama was "the first mainstream African-American [candidate for the United States presidency] who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy;''2 accusations of racism against former-President Bill Clinton for his inflammatory comments; Reverend Jeremiah Wright's infamous sermon; and Obama's electrifying speech on race in America. -

We believe that it reflects not only considerable progress in the past year, but great promise for the years ahead. We are gratified to note that we achieved or exceeded most of our goals for the first year across our programs, communications and finances and for our impact metrics with educators and students. In areas where we fell short, we are working to improve this year. The first pillar of our plan calls for us to “increase both the use and the measurable student impact of NLP programs and resources.” Highlights for the year, which coincides with our July–June fiscal year, included: • We were told by educators that our Checkology® virtual classroom meets the metrics it is designed to teach and is better than other comparable educational platforms. • We saw considerable growth in the percentage of students who were able to recognize the standards of quality journalism and the rights guaranteed by the First Amendment. -

Virtual Signature Event Election Panel Panelists Mike Allen Founder and Executive Editor, Axios Media Gloria Borger Chief Political Analyst, CNN Charlie Cook Editor and Publisher, The Cook Political Report Political Analyst, NBC News and National Journal Group Nikole Killion Correspondent, CBS News Moderator David M. Rubenstein President The Economic Club of Washington, D.C. Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2020 1 DAVID M. RUBENSTEIN: I’d like to now introduce our four principal speakers. And I would just say, I know all of them have incredible biographies. And if I read the biographies in great detail, we won’t go too far into the conversation. So, let me just briefly introduce them. I apologize for not giving as long an introduction as they probably deserve. Mike Allen – I’ll do this alphabetically – Mike Allen is the co-founder of Axios and, I would say, maybe Washington’s most indefatigable journalist and most knowledgeable journalist about everything going on in Washington. He never sleeps. He works around the clock. And so, it’s always easy to get him on the phone or get him on email, because he’s always awake. And, Mike, thank you very much for everything you’re doing to bring knowledge and information to people. You’ve been doing it for quite a while, with Politico and Axios. Thank you for joining us. MIKE ALLEN: Thank you, David, for having me. MR. RUBENSTEIN: Gloria Borger is the chief political analyst at CNN. And I’m sure if you watch CNN you see her on the Wolf Blitzer “Situation Room” show and also Anderson Cooper “AC 360,” and many other shows.
