Documentary looks at media coverage of Nixon's visit to China

Richard Nixon’s 1972 visit to China reshaped the global balance of power and opened the door to U.S.-China relations. The media coverage of this event is as important as the details of the diplomacy, and is brought to life through the new documentary: Assignment: China. Shorenstein APARC will screen the film on Feb. 7, followed by commentary from the film’s reporter and narrator Mike Chinoy.
