Description of Pictures: The Kalb Report - "Democracy in Action: A Review of the 2012 Presidential Debates"
Candy Crowley, Jim Lehrer, Martha Raddatz, and Bob Schieffer, the four respected journalists selected by the Commission on Presidential Debates to moderate the 2012 debates, join Marvin Kalb to discuss the impact of these forums and the evolution of the democratic process in the digital age.
Note: Due to a family emergency, Candy Crowley was unable to participate in this evening's event.
The Kalb Report is produced by the George Washington University, Harvard University's Shorenstein Center, the National Press Club Journalism Institute, the University of Maryland University College (UMUC), and the Philip Merrill College of Journalism at the University of Maryland. The series is underwritten by a grant from the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation.
Partially Reviewed: Rough draft. I've gone through these pictures once, removing the worst ones, some duplication, etc. I usually take sequences of 4 or 5 pictures at a time and there are lots of near duplicates. I'll be doing a final review later.
Recognize anyone? If you recognize specific people (or other things) in the pictures which I haven't labeled, please identify them for the world. Or fill in any other descriptions you can. Click the little pencil icon underneath the file name (just above the picture). Spammers need not apply.

Missing Some Bigger photos? Each new digital camera by default wants to take larger and larger photos. To save myself time and server space, I don't upload to the web site versons of photos that are bigger than 2.75 megabytes to the web page. If you want the biggest sized photo and you don't see a link bigger than 0640x0480, email Bruce Guthrie and I'll email specific photos to you.
