This is two hours and ten minutes. Thank you for coming. My name is seth jones, the harold brown chair and director of trance National Threats project for the center of international studies. We have a fantastic two sets of panels on what is an important subject and i think increasingly important subject and part of the motivation i think from Suzanne Spaulding and i in looking at this and i have to give you u credit, suzanne, for being the brain child behind this, was to look at some of the recent attacks including el paso and the synagogue attacks and note that there has been a dialogue debate within the u. S. About how to respond to it. The degree of threat and how serious it is then how to respond to it. So what we like to do is move in the following sense. Were going to begin with a discussion about the evolution of the threat. And how domestic terrorism, i know some of the terminology for these groups is the racially motivated violent groups. I cannot promise the panelists are go
As well. As you so eloquently stated some decades ago, we must be platform, platformagnostic. Go to where the people are and increasingly, that means mobile. Lets put it over here the debate of print versus digital. Journalism is better today because there are many more tools. I grew up in new orleans. I only had access to one newspaper. The same kid who grows up in new orleans in a workingclass family now has access to as many newspapers as he can push a button for your he has access to video and to the whole world. We shouldnt get so caught up in the debates over the form and we shouldnt get so caught up in some of the romantic aspects of journalism, which believe me, i grew up in. Its better and it will be better 10 years from now. The future of the New York Times in the digital age with chairman and publisher Arthur Sulzberger junior and executive editor dean mckay.

It is out there. I will not discuss that today. I would like to but i will not. The point is, it is hard now, it is much more fun and i am a big the lever although we have sean and so many people who have done so well and have built really and industries in brilliant businesses doing network radio. My has always been live in local and immediate. I have always liked this small city here as my home turf. I think of it as my home. My point is that it has changed. It is not going to change back. We know that it is going to be owned most of the time, most stations will be owned by people who have a lot of stations managers who have more than one station to run. Salespeople involved in more than one type of programming all that stuff. It does not change the dynamic of the business. Live in local, it has to go back to that no matter what part of the business you are running because eventually, it is about a guy who has a show room to sell cars or a storefront he wants people to walk into or a
Recovered the remains of two gang members who had been murdered and decapitated within yards of where the bodies were discovered in the park last night. Although gang related. The chief declined to say who investigators think the two might be. This problem is horrible. You know, this is four murders in this park. Obviously, weve had other murders in past few week, its out of control and we need to stop it. Reporter the identification will be made by the medical examiners office. The chief declined to say what detectives believe may be the ages or sexes of the victims. Detectives have not ruled out the possible the victims could be two teen boys missing from the Falls Church Area since last september. 17yearold edwin mendez and 14yearold sergio were acquainted with each other and affiliated with gangs. Neighborses are horrified and gang related that does scare me a lot. Because the kids are subjected to things that didnt happen years ago or wasnt as common. That is the alarming part of
