Join Kentucky to the World as NBC News Senior Political Reporter and Louisville native Perry Bacon, Jr. shares an insider's view honed from more than a dozen years in Washington and on the campaign trail covering our nation's most important political developments. Hear his insights on the rise of hyper-partisanship, the growing connection between celebrity and political success, and how technology is reshaping media and politics. He will explore how we got to a President Trump and what that means for 2017 and beyond.

Following his remarks, Perry and Congressman John Yarmuth, a former newspaper publisher, whom Perry met as a high school student in the days when he was just “a nerdy kid” dreaming big, will have a conversation about the future of politics and the media.
