Journalists are welcome to apply to attend the Media and the Military workshop, a week-long program designed to help reporters, editors, producers, and bloggers learn more about covering the military.
The workshop, which will be held Sept. 20-25, 2009 in Fort Leavenworth, Kan., provides an opportunity for journalists to learn about military training and strategy by embedding for a week with enlisted soldiers and officers.
The program pays for all journalists’ expenses, including lodging, meals, and airfare. Funded by the McCormick Foundation, the workshop is coordinated by the University of Kansas journalism school and the Combined Arms Center at Fort Leavenworth.
To apply, please contact Justin Hilley at: jhilley@ku.edu.
