Re: Pulitzer Prize-winning author David Cay Johnston speaks at UNCW
David Cay Johnston, Pulitzer Prize-winning New York Times journalist, will be speaking on the campus of University of North Carolina Wilmington to the Master of Science in Accountancy students at 11 a.m. Thursday, Feb. 10 in Cameron Hall, Room 133. Media are invited to attend this talk. Johnston will also be available for interviews immediately after the lecture.
Johnston won the 2001 Pulitzer Prize for beat reporting and has been a Pulitzer finalist three other times since 2000. His best-selling book Perfectly Legal documents how, over the last three decades, the tax system has been twisted to subsidize the wealthiest one percent of the country. Johnston will speak about President Bush’s proposed tax changes to the federal income tax and social security and how tax shelters are used by the wealthy and corporations.
