WASHINGTON - Four of the nation's top business reporters, Alexis Glick, Diana Henriques, Steve Pearlstein, and Ali Velshi, will join moderator Marvin Kalb to explore the "business of business reporting" on the next edition of The Kalb Report, Monday, Feb. 9, 2009 at 8 p.m. in the Main Ballroom of the National Press Club. The panel will examine the global economic crisis, the roles journalists have played in this evolving story, how the media affects the market, and how business influences the news media. The Kalb Report is produced jointly by The George Washington University Global Media Institute, Harvard's Joan Shorenstein Center, and the National Press Club. The series is underwritten by a grant from the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation.
