International reporting and training foreign journalists will be discussed at the next Fireside Chat 6 p.m. Wednesday at the Denver Press Club, 1330 Glenarm.
The event, sponsored by the Colorado Pro Chapter of the Society of Professional Journalists, will feature reporters and authors Peter Eichstaedt and Ann Imse.
Admission is free, but RSVP here please.
