Soledad O'Brien at Slippery Rock University


Soledad O'Brien spoke this month in Pennsylvania to Slippery Rock University students.

Some of her key points: public discourse nowadays revolves around politics, not policy, and that her show, Matter of Fact, is meant to give context to the news.

O'Brien also said that these kinds of on-location trips to listen to people help put America in context. "Anytime I go to a university to talk, I really like talking to students, I find them very gutsy, because they’re not afraid to ask questions."

Students had an hour to ask O'Brien questions and following the chat with students, O'Brien spoke to a larger crowd at the Robert Smith Student Center on campus.
