Few headlines in history are as iconic and memorable as “Dewey Defeats Truman.” Anyone that is familiar with that headline knows that it was mistaken. What is less known is the fascinating story behind the headline. Join Sam Rushay, Supervisory Archivist at the Harry S. Truman Library, as he discusses the origins and lasting impact of “Dewey Defeats Truman.” It’s a story about politics and polls, but it’s also a very human story that continues to capture the public and scholarly imagination over seven decades later.
