10-week course is titled 'Media Polarization and Public Policy Impacts'
Hunter Biden, son of President Joe Biden and target of Republican attacks during the 2020 presidential campaign for his business dealings in Ukraine, is one of nine guest speakers scheduled to address a new 10-week class at Tulane University, a university spokesperson confirmed Tuesday night.
The online course is called "Media Polarization and Public Policy Impacts." Fox News said it will focus on "the current state of the media landscape in the United States and how media polarization, fake news and the economics of the new business impact public policymaking in Washington D.C."
A Tulane spokesperson said the course's co-teacher will be Andrew Schwartz, communications director for the Center for Strategic and International Studies, a U.S. think tank that researches national security policy.
The course is to rotate through these guest speakers, in addition to Biden:
- Dr. Deborah Birx, White House coronavirus response coordinator under President Donald Trump
- Susan Glasser, columnist for The New Yorker
- Margaret Sullivan, columnist for The Washington Post
- Juan Williams, political analyst for Fox News
- Kylie Atwood, national security correspondent for CNN
- Margaret Brennan, moderator for CBS News' "Face the Nation"
- Bret Stephens, columnist for The New York Times
- Michael Fauntroy, political science professor at Howard University.
