Description

The Assembly panel will feature presentations by Christopher Atamian, author and writer for Huffington Post, Michael Bobelian, author and contributing writer for Forbes.com, Stephen Kurkjian, former journalist from The Boston Globe, and Robert Ourlian, editor for the Washington Bureau of The Wall Street Journal. Peter Mirijanian, President of Peter Mirijanian Public Affairs, will serve as moderator.

The discussion will focus on how the Armenian Genocide has been characterized and portrayed in American media over the last 100 years. Mainstream American publications such as The New York Times, Washington Post, and the Boston Globe extensively covered the Armenian Genocide before, during and after the attempted annihilation of the Armenian people. In addition to the reports of the massacres, coverage of America’s effort to help save the survivors, the first international philanthropic campaign of the American people in the 20th century, received considerable attention in the press. As we approach the centenary of the Armenian Genocide, the topic is being featured in every major news syndicate across the globe.

The panel will be held in the Holeman Lounge, National Press Club, 529 14th Street NW, 13th Floor, Washington, DC 20045. The event is free and open to the public.
