Actor and political activist Richard Dreyfuss will discuss "civility" and how an informed electorate can better engage in political dialogue at a Newsmaker at 10 a.m. Tuesday, Jan. 25.

Dreyfuss will outline the civics education program he has launched through the Dreyfuss Initiative. He will discuss the political climate and challenge journalists to be “the real Fourth Estate” of government. He also is urging more formal debate in Congress, which he says can bring more order to the institution.
