Eye Opener Breakfast - November 2025

Speaker:
John Hiner

Topic:
Defending the Free Press In a Time of Reckoning
In an era of escalating hostility toward journalism and journalists, the stakes have never been higher. The free press is under siege – from political forces, public distrust, and economic pressures – but its mission remains indispensable: to expose truth, hold power to account, and serve communities with credible, courageous reporting. This talk confronts the threats facing American journalism and explains how readers can help preserve it.
