Celebrate facts with Poynter and PolitiFact at our second annual United Facts of America, starting today. Tickets are still available! Register to join us here.

Here are just a few of the conversations we're looking forward to:

🇺🇸 Legendary “PBS NewsHour” journalist Judy Woodruff will speak on the fast-approaching U.S. midterm elections, give highlights from her career (as one of the first two women to anchor a national news broadcast), and explain what she plans to do after she leaves the anchor seat at the end of the year.

💰 Former Fox News political editor Chris Stirewalt will share his perspective on news organizations and the temptation of “rage revenue” through slanted coverage, which drives political division and rewards outrageous conduct.

📲 CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan will discuss online disinformation campaigns targeting the American electorate, and how social media platforms, Congress and the American intelligence community are responding to the threat of disinformation and troll campaigns.

It’s time to let Poynter help you jumpstart your management career.

Maybe you’re an inexperienced manager just starting your new role. Or maybe you’ve got managerial experience but have had little training. In either case, you could use some tools — along with a big dose of confidence.

This popular in-person workshop will help you build a strong foundation as a leader so your staff can engage and excel. 

Cost: $1,500. Apply by Oct. 14.

We’ve shared these moments because the journalists of The Associated Press captured history in the flash of a camera. Now’s your chance to go behind the scenes of these iconic images — and the historic events underway today — with an all-access pass to the work of the AP. 
 
You’re invited to join the Poynter Institute on Oct. 11 for an immersive, multimedia-rich evening with the award-winning journalist and newsroom executive helping write history’s first draft: Julie Pace.

🥳 Congrats to 2016 women's leadership academy alum Leezel Tanglao!
