Pulliam Distinguished Fellow in Journalism. Rosen will teach- ing a one-credit course for Hillsdale students in the Herbert H. Dow II Program in American Journalism begin- ning Oct. 19. On Oct. 26, Rosen will deliver a lecture on campus titled “Fear and Loathing on the Centrifuge Trail: National Security Reporting and Press Freedoms in the Obama Era.” The lecture is open to the public and will be held in Phillips Auditorium at 8 p.m. on the Hillsdale College campus. “James Rosen’s bold reporting on national security issues and his refusal to be cowed by Justice Department harassment serve as a wonderful example of principled journalism for our students,” said John J. Miller, direc- tor of the Dow Journalism Program. During his two-week course, “Craft and Ethics,” Rosen will lead a discussion about The Journalist and the Murderer, the highly debated and criticized work by Janet Malcolm about the ethics of journalism. “The freedom of the press is under attack as the government tries to silence journalists who report information the public wants and needs to know,” Rosen said. “It’s vital that young journalists understand these pressures and are emboldened to defend the fundamental principles of journalism when they enter the field.” In addition to his role as chief Washington correspondent for Fox News, Rosen also hosts the online show “The Foxhole” and authored The Strong Man: John Mitchell and the Secrets of Watergate. Rosen’s second book, Cheney One on One: Candid Conversations with America’s Most Controversial Statesman, will be pub- lished on Nov. 2. Before joining Fox News, Rosen worked as a researcher to “CBS Evening News” anchor and managing editor Dan Rather; as an associate producer at WWOR-TV in New York; as a producer in the political unit of NY-1 News; as an anchor and reporter for WREX-TV in Rockford, Illinois; and as an anchor and reporter for News12/The Bronx. His articles and essays have appeared in the New York Times, Washington Post, Atlantic Monthly, Harper’s, and National Review, among other periodicals. About the Pulliam Fellowship at Hillsdale College The Pulliam Fellowship is named for Eugene C. Pulliam, a renowned newspaper publisher, philanthropist and community leader. Throughout his career, Pulliam owned and operated 46 newspapers in nine states and was president of Central Newspapers Inc., a multibillion-dollar media corporation. He considered freedom and lib- erty to be the real mission of any American newspaper, and he protected and demanded truth. Pulliam’s legacy of philanthropy to education and journalism continues through his daughters, Corinne Pulliam Quayle and Su- zanne Pulliam Murphy. Past Pulliam Fellows include Kevin Williamson, David Satter, Jonah Goldberg, Kimberley Strassel, Mark Steyn, Tim Carney, Andrew Ferguson, P.J. O’Rourke, Richard Brookhiser, William McGurn, Naomi Schaefer Riley, Nolan Finley, and Stephen Hayes. About Hillsdale College Hillsdale College, founded in 1844, has built a national reputation through its classical liberal arts core curric- ulum and its principled refusal to accept federal or state taxpayer subsidies, even indirectly in the form of stu- dent grants or loans. It also conducts an outreach effort promoting civil and religious liberty, including a free monthly speech digest, Imprimis, with a circulation of more than 2.9 million. ### .

  • Are Texans Being Denied Access to a Vital Medicine? a Scientific Assessment of Marijuana
    Are Texans Being DENIED ACCESS to a VITAL MEDICINE? A Scientific Assessment of Marijuana This booklet may be reproduced in total for free distribution. PDF files are available at http://www.DPFT.org Introduction The goal of the Drug Policy Forum of Texas (DPFT) is to minimize the damage done to society by both drug abuse and poorly conceived drug laws. To that end we provide scientific information and expert opinion while promoting discussion of what might be more effective alternatives to our current drug policies. Members may differ on the best answers. We hold the traditional view that unrestricted debate and a well informed public are essential elements of democracy. DPFT does not advocate or encourage the recreational use of illegal or legal drugs. Our members are simply concerned citizens from no particular political or social group, but we’re fortunate to include many experts among our leaders and advisors. Executive Director, Dr. G. Alan Robison, is a National Academy of Sciences award winning pharmacologist, Dr. Fred Murad recently won the Nobel prize for medicine and Dr. Susan Robbins teaches a national award-winning TV course on “Drugs and Society.” We work closely with many other experts here and around the world. We welcome you to join us. This booklet addresses one element of drug policy, the use of marijuana as medicine. Federal policy seems oddly schizophrenic in that since 1978 the federal government has grown, and mailed some 300 marijuana cigarettes a month to a handful of patients who had to prove to the satisfaction of three government agencies (DEA, FDA and NIDA) that marijuana was an essential element in their treatment, yet has closed the program to new entrants since 1992.

Watergate was the defining event of Richard Nixon’s presidency. In the early 1970s, as the Vietnam War raged and the civil rights movement in the United States continued its momentum, the Watergate scandal ignited a crisis of confidence in government leadership and a constitutional crisis that tested the limits of executive power and the mettle of the democratic process. “Watergate” was 1A list of the records that petitioners seek is attached to the Petition, filed concurrently herewith.

Book Review Essay The Making of the Attorney General: John Mitchell and the Crimes of Watergate Reconsidered Gerald Caplan* I. INTRODUCTION Shortly after I resigned my position as General Counsel of the District of Columbia Metropolitan Police Department in 1971, I was startled to receive a two-page letter from Attorney General John Mitchell. I was not a Department of Justice employee, and Mitchell's acquaintance with me was largely second-hand. The contents were surprising. Mitchell generously lauded my rather modest role "in developing an effective and professional law enforcement program for the District of Columbia." Beyond this, he added, "Your thoughtful suggestions have been of considerable help to me and my colleagues at the Department of Justice." The salutation was, "Dear Jerry," and the signature, "John." I was elated. I framed the letter and hung it in my office.

  • The Obama Administration and the Press Leak Investigations and Surveillance in Post-9/11 America
    The Obama Administration and the Press Leak investigations and surveillance in post-9/11 America By Leonard Downie Jr. with reporting by Sara Rafsky A special report of the Committee to Protect Journalists Leak investigations and surveillance in post-9/11 America U.S. President Barack Obama came into office pledging open government, but he has fallen short of his promise. Journalists and transparency advocates say the White House curbs routine disclosure of information and deploys its own media to evade scrutiny by the press. Aggressive prosecution of leakers of classified information and broad electronic surveillance programs deter government sources from speaking to journalists. A CPJ special report by Leonard Downie Jr. with reporting by Sara Rafsky Barack Obama leaves a press conference in the East Room of the White House August 9. (AFP/Saul Loeb) Published October 10, 2013 WASHINGTON, D.C. In the Obama administration’s Washington, government officials are increasingly afraid to talk to the press. Those suspected of discussing with reporters anything that the government has classified as secret are subject to investigation, including lie-detector tests and scrutiny of their telephone and e-mail records. An “Insider Threat Program” being implemented in every government department requires all federal employees to help prevent unauthorized disclosures of information by monitoring the behavior of their colleagues. Six government employees, plus two contractors including Edward Snowden, have been subjects of felony criminal prosecutions since 2009 under the 1917 Espionage Act, accused of leaking classified information to the press— compared with a total of three such prosecutions in all previous U.S.

  • National Review Commentary What Is
    National Review Commentary What Is Conservatism? By Lee Edwards The National Review Institute, led by the redoubtable Lindsay Craig, has been engaged in a praiseworthy project these past five years, sponsoring a “rigorous examination” of conservative principles for mid-career professionals who want a deeper understanding of conservatism. Leading the discussions over the course of eight dinner seminars are such knowledgeable conservatives as Victor Davis Hanson, Jonah Goldberg, Richard Brookhiser, Dan Mahoney, and Kathryn Lopez. I have been privileged to kick off the series in New York City, Washington, D.C., Dallas, San Francisco, and Philadelphia with a profile of the polymath founder of National Review—William F. Buckley Jr. In the Q and A that follows two questions are invariably asked by the participants who are lawyers, educators, government employees, physicians, entrepreneurs, even pastors. The first usually comes half-way through the discussion: “Is there anyone on the scene today who will be the next Bill Buckley?” I decline to be pinned down to one name but point to dynamic young speakers like Ben Shapiro and Matthew Continetti and insightful editors like Yuval Levin and Dan McCarthy. When pressed I will respond that Bill Buckley was sui generis and it is unlikely we will see his like again. But, I am quick to add, there are a goodly number of conservatives under 40 whose talents in sum are equal to the man who more than anyone else made the modern conservative movement. The second question usually comes toward the end of the dinner: “What is conservatism?” Most of the NRI Fellows live in a hostile liberal world in which they are challenged to justify their positions philosophically.
