About this event
On August 11th, 2023, the residence of Eric Meyer, a journalist based in Marion County, underwent a raid conducted by both the Marion City police and Marion County Sheriffs. This extraordinary incident gained national prominence due to the infrequent nature of newsroom raids in the country. In the following discussions, insights will be provided by professionals from the news and law sectors to elucidate the sequence of events and to explore the reasons underpinning the heightened national attention surrounding this occurrence.
Tuesday Topics is a partnership event of Wichita Public Library and the League of Women Voters Wichita-Metro. The public is welcome.
