The Stories Behind The Stories

Dear Readers,

As many of you know, I am a long-time advocate for open government.  I am also the immediate past-president of the Connecticut Foundation for Open Government (CFOG), a tax-exempt, not-for-profit corporation founded in 1991 by citizens of Connecticut interested in promoting open government and the public’s right-to-know.

Please join CFOG and its supporters on Monday, January 23, from 5-7 pm at the Lyceum in Hartford, for the organization’s first important event of 2017–“The Stories Behind the Biggest Stories of 2016 . . . and the Storm on the 2017 Horizon.”  WNPR’s Colin McEnroe and CT News Junkie’s Christine Stuart will moderate a discussion by a star-studded panel including some of our state’s leading journalists.  They will highlight the “real” stories behind 2016’s headline news in Connecticut and predict the major stories of 2017. A small $10 donation is all that is required to attend this terrific event.

You can register online at www.ctfog.org or by email at m.pearlman@cox.net.

I look forward to seeing you there!

I hope to see you there!
