Kristen McQueary asked me to post this. Doesn’t look like I’ll be able to make it because of session, but head on over tomorrow if you can.
Join the Chicago Headline Club for a free and inspiring event featuring Gary Post-Tribune political reporter STEVE WALSH, Chicago Tribune reporter JAMES JANEGA and Capitol Fax creator RICH MILLER for a lively discussion, “Reporters Notebook: The War in Iraq.”
Janega prepared for his journey to Iraq by camouflaging his light hair and blue eyes — then hunkered down with ground troops for the invasion into Fallujah. Hear how Walsh and his colleagues negotiated with Pentagon officials to escape the strict orders of a colonel who insisted on editing Walsh’s stories before he sent them via e-mail.
Are we reading and learning “the truth” about the war in Iraq? Come and find out. This event is free and open to the public. No RSVP required.
WHEN: 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, April 12. Cash bar and appetizers begin at 6:00 p.m.
WHERE: Wrigley Building, 410 Club, located at 410 N. Michigan Ave.
PARKING: Complimentary parking available at 430 N. Rush St.
