More than 500 GW students, alumni, and guests gathered at the National Press Club on Nov. 26 to hear veteran White House journalists David Gregory, Dan Rather, David Sanger, and Helen Thomas examine the press and the presidency with moderator Marvin Kalb on The Kalb Report: Thank You, Mr. President. The distinguished panelists looked back on their decades of experience covering the White House to explore the tense relationship between the president and the Fourth Estate and to analyze current affairs, including the war in Iraq and the Middle East peace talks.

The George Washington University, the National Press Club, and Harvard’s Shorenstein Center have produced 58 forums in The Kalb Report series since 1994. The series is underwritten by a grant from the Ethics and Excellence in Journalism Foundation.
