DESCRIPTION:INFORUM and The Commonwealth Club present\n\nUndercover Journalism: James 
 O'Keefe\n\nA renegade insider shares his methods that revealed some 
 unbecoming behaviors of a public-interest giant\n\nJames O'Keefe, 
 Investigative Journalist and Filmmaker\n\nJosh Wolf, Graduate Student, UC 
 Berkeley School of Journalism; Blogger, Freedomedia; Freelance Journalist - 
 Moderator\n\nMeet the man who thrust ACORN into controversy. With a cheap 
 video camera (and a cheaper chinchilla coat), O'Keefe captured footage of 
 employees of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now 
 apparently advising a pimp and prostitute (O'Keefe and an ally, undercover) 
 to evade taxes, conceal illegal money and traffic in underage girls. With 
 attention from blogs and TV news commentators, the scandal erupted, leading 
 to the Congress cutting funding from the nonprofit ACORN. Join our 
 discussion with O'Keefe and Wolf as they talk about the future of 
 journalism and the benefits (and pitfalls) of undercover reporting. Is 
 independent, undercover journalism an emerging trend, or will it continue 
 to be the exception to the rule? \n\nLocation: SF Club Office\nTime: 6 p.m. 
 check-in, 6:30 p.m. program, 7:30 p.m. networking reception\nCost: MEMBERS 
 FREE, $18 non-members, $7 students (with valid ID)\n
