The Dole Institute of Politics is hosting the event as part of its "Dole Forum Lecture Series," a periodic lecture series featuring prominent figures in government, politics and media.
Richard Norton Smith, director of the Dole Institute, said the lecture series was designed to help people understand the nature of politics and media and how the two concepts interacted.

Tires slashed on 11 cars near downtown
Car tires of nine University of Kansas students and two Lawrence residents were slashed about 1:15 a.m. Saturday in an alley between the 1300 blocks of Kentucky and Vermont streets, Sgt. Dave Hubbel said.
Two witnesses said they saw some one leave the alley in a maroon hatchback vehicle.
Jennifer Lambie, who lives in the 1300 block of Vermont Street, said none of the damage was repairable.
"It's kind of like they started at 13th Street and went all the way down the alley to 14th Street," Lambie, Overland Park senior said.
Her tire, as well as the tires of her two roommates were slashed, she said.
Lamble said she would continue to park in the alley lot behind her house despite the slashings.
"I parked there last night," she said. "I was kind of worried at first. But obviously that is the only place where we can park. We're going to continue to park there and hope it doesn't happen again.

Fourteen tires were damaged in the incident. Damage was estimated at $2,135.
Local residents protest possible war in Iraq
Despite the rainy weather, about 300 demonstrators took to the streets to protest a potential war in Iraq Saturday morning. Demonstrators met at the Douglas County Courthouse,111 E.11th St., and marched down Massachusetts Street holding signs and handing out fliers to passersby.
The rally, sponsored by the Lawrence Coalition for Peace and Justice, ended back at the courthouse where members of the community stood on the steps and addressed the president's opinions of the war against Iraq.
President Bush spoke to the United Nations Thursday and warned of the danger posed by Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein. Bush said that even if the United Nations did not support action against Iraq, the United States would still attack, according to USA Today.
About 25 KU students met at the Ecumenical Christian Ministries,1204 Oread Ave.to make signs and rally support for the march downtown. Glen Mies, Kingman freshman, said he attended the rally because he believed violence bred violence.
"I think it's important to show the rest of the world that not all Americans are into being the world's police," he said. "The community needs to know that there are a lot of us out there who don't believe in action against Iraq."
