How can our democratic society find real and sustainable solutions to our problems of disinformation\, political polarization\, and new media technologies?  In this talk\, David McCraw will draw on his experiences as a lawyer and as the Deputy General Counsel for The New York Times to explore the ethical challenges awaiting journalists and the American public that arise at the intersection of law\, ethics\, and technology. \nDavid McCraw is Deputy General Counsel of The New York Times Company and serves as the company’s principal newsroom lawyer. He is the author of the recent book “Truth in Our Times: Inside the Fight for Press Freedom in the Age of Alternative Facts\,” a first-person account of the legal battles that helped shape The New York Times’s coverage of Donald Trump\, Harvey Weinstein\, conflicts abroad\, and Washington’s divisive politics. He has been at The Times since 2002. He is a visiting lecturer at Harvard Law School and an adjunct professor at the NYU Law School. He has done pro bono work in support of free expression in Yemen\, Russia\, Montenegro\, Bahrain\, and other countries around the world. \nThis talk is co-sponsored by the LBJ School of Public Affairs and the UT Ethics Project. The Media Ethics Initiative is part of the Center for Media Engagement at the University of Texas at Austin.
