Reporting from Russia in a time of war
What does it mean to report from a country at war, from the heart of the state shaping the conflict?
In this timely talk, Steve Rosenberg reflects on two decades of reporting from Moscow and the extraordinary pressures facing journalists covering Russia today. This is a rare opportunity to hear directly from one of the most recognisable Western journalists in Moscow, and to understand how news is gathered, tested, and told at a moment of historic consequence.
For anyone trying to make sense of Russia’s role in today’s world, this promises to be an unmissable evening of analysis, reflection, and behind-the-scenes insight.
