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

    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.

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.

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.
