Inside the White House

In this episode, Peter Baker takes us inside the White House, sharing the incredible stories and insights he's gained during his decades-long career covering the past five presidents and their administrations. Baker is the chief White House correspondent for The New York Times, an award-winning journalist, a political analyst, and a New York Times best-selling author. He is uniquely qualified to discuss the challenges reporters face in our changing media landscape, the role of the press in holding our leaders accountable, and the state of the 2024 election for president.

This special edition of Hughes Center Conversations recaps the highlights from the center's in-person conversation with Baker, which was held September 12, 2024 at Stockton University and moderated by Stockton Professor of Communication Studies Toby Rosenthal.
