The Future of News: Is There a War on Truth?

Show Notes

Is the internet loosening our collective grasp on the truth? Pioneers of digital news once argued that new online sources would bring us new perspectives about the world. They did not anticipate the internet would destroy traditional media gatekeepers and give everyone a chance to indulge in news that confirms their preexisting ideas.

Featuring Joshua Johnson, Susan Page, Campbell Brown, and David Leonhardt.
