About this event
Mulitple speakers
This is the first in a 3-part series of events under the banner Journalism in the Firing Line. We explore the ways in which journalism and democratic values are being threatened by powerful interests.
'When does journalism become a crime?' focuses on issues like the surveillance of journalists and whether hostility towards certain journalists has become normalised.
Hosted by : Phil Rees, Director of Investigative Journalism at Al Jazeera
Join us in conversation with:
Tim Dawson, Chair of the International Federation of Journalists' Expert group on Surveillance and Former NUJ President
Ruth Michaelson, Journalist at The Guardian
John Rees, Journalist, political activist, writer
