Description:

Is It Time to Rein in Kleptocrats Who Seek to Dominate the World’s Information? It’s an increasingly prevalent phenomenon across the globe: media companies are being taken over by business tycoons and kleptocrats less concerned with honest journalism than with their own political and financial self-interest. What to do? Are there safeguards that governments can put in place? Does that make sense in a digital age?  Join Hudson Institute’s Kleptocracy Initiative as they host the first in a series of debates on kleptocracy and democracy. Featuring Hudson Visiting Fellow Martha Bayles and Megan McArdle of Bloomberg View. 

Doors open at 6:00 pm and the program will begin at 6:30 pm

Free and open to all!
