In this episode, I am joined with fellow Green Knight Alumni Taylor Popielarz, a Spectrum News DC Reporter, as we discuss the integral role that broadcast journalism plays in our society.  In recent years, the trustworthiness of our news has been called into question with the overwhelming amount of information and sources available to us as consumers.  We have seen politicians coin the term "fake news" in an attempt to denounce any scrutiny they may face as a result of poor policy making.  Social media apps host dozens of "news reporters" who are responsible for tailoring their stories to maximize shareability at the cost of accuracy and integrity.  Who can we trust?  Together, Taylor and I dissect this dilemma and bring to light the key issues facing the field of journalism and what we can do to better filter out fact from fiction.
