Omnibus Speaker Series: Michael Barbaro

“The Moment Demands an Explanation—The Daily Is on a Mission to Find It”

Political Journalist for the New York Times and host of The Daily

On stage, Barbaro tells the story of The Daily’s creation and how it embraces new forms of storytelling to confront the media industry’s biggest challenge: distrust from the public. He describes his own journey, from the highest ranks of political journalism to podcasting, and the lessons he’s learned from both phases of his career. He explains, with striking candor, the state of the media today. And, tapping into his work at the Washington Post and the New York Times, he provides audiences with an informed, nonpartisan perspective on the biggest stories of our time.
