The 50-ton marble tablet, engraved with the 45 words of the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, was displayed on the four-story-high, 74-foot-tall Pennsylvania Avenue façade of the Newseum, a nonprofit museum founded by the Freedom Forum and dedicated to the five freedoms of the First Amendment. Work has begun to remove the stone pieces from the building, which was sold to Johns Hopkins University after the Newseum closed in 2019. The tablet remained the property of the Freedom Forum, and will be a gift to the National Constitution Center. The tablet will be reconfigured and emplaced along a 100-foot-wide wall on the National Constitution Center’s Grand Hall Overlook, the second-floor atrium overlooking historic Independence Mall. “We are thrilled to bring this heroic marble tablet of the First Amendment to the National Constitution Center, to inspire visitors from across America and around the world for generations to come,” said National Constitution Center President and CEO Jeffrey Rosen. “It’s so meaningful to bring

To put it more simply, this course will examine the historic relationship between American society and the media. An underlying assumption of this class is that the content and values of the media have been greatly influenced by changes in society over the last 300 years. Conversely, the media have helped shape our society. More specifically, this course will: 1. Examine how journalistic values such as objectivity have evolved. 2. Explain how the media influenced society and how society influenced the media during different periods of our nation's history. 3. Examine who controlled the media at different periods of time, how that control was exercised and how that control influenced media content. 4. Investigate the relationship between the public and the media during different periods of time.

    CARNEGIE CORPORATION OF NEW YORK ORAL HISTORY PROJECT The Reminiscences of Christopher Callahan Columbia Center for Oral History Columbia University 2013 PREFACE The following oral history is the result of a recorded interview with Christopher Callahan conducted by Myron A. Farber on April 22, 2013 and April 23, 2013. This interview is part of the Carnegie Corporation of New York Oral History Project. The reader is asked to bear in mind that s/he is reading a verbatim transcript of the spoken word, rather than written prose. 3PM Session #1 Interviewee: Christopher Callahan Location: Phoenix, AZ Interviewer: Myron Farber Date: April 22, 2013 Q: This is Myron Farber on April 22, 2013, interviewing Christopher Callahan at the [Walter] Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication in Phoenix for the Carnegie Corporation of New York Oral History [Project] conducted by Columbia University. Do you mind if I call you Chris? Callahan: Please. Q: Easier. Easier. You know, I noticed some comment by Susan [R.] King—who you’ll know from the Carnegie [Corporation] is now going to [University of] North Carolina, I think as a dean [of the School of Journalism and Mass Communication]—that when she encountered all these happy faculty faces out here in Phoenix at your school, she was told that, “Why not? The sun always shines here.” And I think that we should note that we’re doing this interview in something like 96-degree weather here. The sun is completely shining. There are no clouds in the sky. And I suppose everybody is still happy. [Laughter] Callahan: Yes but we don’t bring guests out in the middle of summer.
