League members and guests are invited to our annual Media Lunch on Friday, February 13, 2026 at 11:30 a.m – 1:30 p.m.
We will also celebrate the League’s 106th and Oregon’s 167th birthdays which fall on Valentine’s Day.
Our topic this year will examine the current status and future opportunities of print journalism in Oregon. Panelists will discuss the role of print journalism as a tool for civic engagement and democracy. Our speaker, Mark Zusman of Oregon Journalism Project, and moderator, Dr. Lee Shaker from Portland State University, will examine the changing political landscape in relation to print media. We are awaiting confirmation on other panelists.
There will be time for socializing as well as for audience questions.
