A special event celebrating the life of Edward R. Murrow, and the birth of broadcast news.

"To be persuasive, we must be believable; to be believable, we must be credible; to be credible, we must be truthful." --Edward R. Murrow

Join us as we celebrate the birth of broadcast journalism through a very special episode highlighting the life of legendary newsman Edward R. Murrow.

To help us make this program even more memorable, Channel One News will be joined by George Clooney, director and star of Good Night, And Good Luck, a critically acclaimed film detailing the real-life confrontations faced by Murrow in exposing viewers to abuses of power thereby earning him a place in history as an enduring example of the media's duty to protect the public good.
