The Dean’s Office is pleased to welcome New York Times Journalist, David Farenthold, for a discussion on how journalism reveals the impact of Trump-era policies on nonprofits and examines the work of DOGE. The conversation will be moderated by Professor Raphael Duguay.
David Fahrenthold is an investigative reporter for the New York Times, based in Washington. He writes primarily about the world of nonprofits, including the agencies that regulate them. Fahrenthold joined The Times in 2022, after 21 years as a reporter for the Washington Post. He won the 2017 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting for his coverage of Donald Trump during the 2016 presidential election — including stories about Trump’s troubled charity, the Donald J. Trump Foundation.
Open to the Yale community, lunch served to registered attendees.
