On Tuesday, March 18, the nonprofit reform group Open Primaries will host an online virtual discussion featuring a legendary figure in journalism: Chuck Todd, who moderated NBC's Meet the Press for nearly 10 years.

Todd is a well-known figure in media, but he is also one of the few mainstream news hosts who is willing to give a voice to independents and is willing to acknowledge that America's institutions across the board are failing voters.

Especially the media. Register for the virtual event.

“National media can’t win trust back without having a robust partner locally and trying to game algorithms is no way to inform and report," Todd stated in his announcement that he was leaving NBC after two decades.

"People are craving community and that’s something national media or the major social media companies can’t do as well as local media. If you do this job seeking popularity, or to simply be an activist, you are doing this job incorrectly.”

Todd will join the Primary Buzz Discussion Series to discuss what needs to be done to restore public trust in America's institutions, especially as reformers try to show voters a better, more accountable way to conduct elections.

The virtual discussion is open to the public and will take place on Tuesday, March 18, at 3 pm EDT / noon PDT. Register for Open Primaries' Primary Buzz Discussion Series here.
