Troubleshooting today’s journalism
The disappearance of newspapers and local news organizations has been ongoing for many years. In this episode of the CSBS podcast, we will examine the historical changes that journalism is undergoing and what this means for news and equality. Dr. Nikki Usher, associate professor at the College of Media, talks with the CSBS research scientist, Peter Ondish, and research development manager, Kaylee Lukacena, about her new book: News for the Rich, White and Blue - How Place and Power Distort American Journalism. The discussion will aid in understanding some of the key concepts from her book such as the cultural and existential importance of news, the significance of location for journalism, the goldilocks paradigm and more.
