Investigative Post is screening “Good Night, and Good Luck,” the story of legendary TV newsman Edward R. Murrow staring down Sen. Joe McCarthy and the CBS hierarchy, Wednesday at 7 p.m. at the Burchfield Penny Arts Center.
After the film, Investigative Post Editor Jim Heaney and Lee Coppola, a former investigative reporter and retired dean of the School of Journalism at St. Bonaventure University, will discuss whether Murrow’s fears, about how television’s powers might be squandered to amuse rather than inform, have come to pass.
Admission is $10 and includes an Investigative Post membership. Tickets can be purchased online or at the door.
