Farnsworth Gives Washington Lecture

Stephen Farnsworth, professor of political science and director of the University’s Center for Leadership and Media Studies, recently gave a Washington lecture entitled, “U.S. Foreign Policy and U.S. Mass Media: Shaping Global Public Opinion,” to visiting journalists and political figures from the Middle East and North Africa who were part of a recent U.S. State Department International Visitor Leadership Program. The talk was based, in part, on Farnsworth’s recently co-authored book, “The Global President: International Media and the U.S. Government.”
