JOURNALISTS
The Peter Jennings Project for Journalists and the Constitution aims to help both professional journalists and students interested in journalism understand constitutional issues more deeply. This is accomplished through an annual conference in March and continued programs throughout the year.
Over the Project’s first two years, 52 professional journalists and 44 student journalists have participated as Jennings Fellows. Participants, who represent most of the major national newspapers, a variety of smaller circulation newspapers and magazines, as well as broadcasting and online ventures, are selected through an application process.
In addition to participating in the inaugural conference in March Jennings Fellows were asked to follow up on what they have learned with specific work published, aired or posted on-line in calendar year 2007.
