After 18 months of intense work, we dropped eps 1 and 2 of our new season, The News. We think this project is making some real interventions, as @catchatweetdown
likes to say(!), into the scattered and confused debates about "the media." Check it!

Dear listeners and especially educators! Excited to share that we've built a robust high school curriculum tool for our Season 7 series, CAPITALISM. Please check it out and spread the word? (link 👇)

About 6 months ago, I went looking for resources to better understand the history of racism.
While that initial query was rooted in the history of racism…I found that & then some here on @SceneOnRadio!
In the past 4-6 months, I’ve binged all 8 seasons.
You should, too!

Finally finished listening to 'The News' @SceneOnRadio
All I can say is: yet another brilliant season exploring another absolutely crucial and urgent topic AND offering ideas HOW TO CHANGE our broken systems.
Big thank u to the whole team!
If we wanted a news media system that would actually serve people, communities and democracy, what might that look like?
Thoughts and concrete ideas in the conclusion of our 8th season, The News. With @catchatweetdown, @VWPickard, Les High of @BeltBorder.

As always, this season of @SceneOnRadio is a great one. Anyone interested in (perceived) bias in journalism and the loss of local news should give it a listen.

We've spent more than a decade testing one answer to this in New Jersey. NJ News Commons is a network of local outlets that share training, coaching and content instead of competing for scraps alone.

NYT headlines really have been atrocious during the Trump 2.0 era and @Sulliview nails it here: margaretsullivan.substack.co…
New episode: As it turns 250, the American republic is in a precarious state, a danger to itself and others.
Can we blame the state of our news media for THIS?

This serves as a perfect setup for our episode that drops Wednesday -- The News ep 7
Our new episode ... goes in, if we say so ourselves.
What's the central structural problem with America's news media?
The 20th century fight over the nature of the media and whom it would serve.

We discuss NYT, CNN, the Sunday shows — if they’re “conservatives” you agree with our thesis! And nobody mentioned bad behavior, it’s documentable patterns and ideological positioning. Our full ep on the theme: sceneonradio.org/s8-e3-about…

A lack of local journalism is fueling mistrust in the news. What can we do about it?
This week, we partner with the podcast @SceneOnRadio for their latest season: The News. revealnews.org/podcast/ameri…
Always great to work with the brilliant journalists at Reveal. Check out this taste of our new season, The News.
@catchatweetdown @prx
For decades, many Americans have accused the major news media of liberal bias. But is it true?
We take a fresh look with our partners at @SceneOnRadio. revealnews.org/podcast/ameri…
In Ep 3 of The News: How about that long-running claim of a liberal/left news media? True story or successful propaganda campaign? Why does it matter? We take a fresh look, with receipts and experts like @PeterBeinart.
