The Hoover Institution hosted "The Norms Of National Security Reporting" on Wednesday, July 20, 2016 from 5:00pm - 7:00pm. The event video is below.

The Hoover Institution's National Security, Technology, and Law Working Group, along with Hoover's Washington, DC office, discussed classified information and the norms of national security reporting. Benjamin Wittes, Hoover working group cochair and senior fellow at the Brookings Institution, interviewed Walter Pincus, the Washington Post's recently-retired national security reporter, on his recent essay “Reflections on Secrecy and the Press from a Life in Journalism.” This essay is part of the Aegis Paper Series that examines the legal and policy options that better shield America, its allies, and civilians worldwide from the risks of the modern world.
