The event will be livestreamed for the general public to access Tuesday, Sept. 17 at 2:30 p.m. EDT on WHYY’s Facebook and YouTube channels and on WHYY.org.

This NABJ event at WHYY will have an in-person audience of NABJ professional and student members and local Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) journalism and communications students. This is not a campaign event and is not open to the public.

“It is an honor for WHYY to be a participant in this important process” said Bill Marrazzo, President and Chief Executive Officer of WHYY, Inc. “WHYY welcomes the chance to support NABJ’s goal to ensure that its membership, as well as the general public, hears from both presidential candidates in advance of the November election,” Marrazzo said.

“We look forward to our members and student journalists hearing from Vice President Harris as our panel asks the tough questions that are most pressing to the communities served by NABJ members,” said NABJ President Ken Lemon.

“Both WHYY and NABJ are focused on informing the electorate while maintaining neutrality about the election,” said Marrazzo.

Lemon added, “As we have always stated, NABJ does not endorse political candidates as a journalism organization. Just as we demonstrated during our Convention interview with former President Trump, this event will not be a campaign rally but will be handled with respect to journalistic principles.”
