This episode explores the state of American journalism with Ted Czech, a former newspaper reporter and author of Saving the Beast. Czech critiques the decline of objective reporting, attributing it to sensationalism, ideological bias, and personality-driven news. He advocates for a return to balanced, fact-based journalism.
Key takeaways:
Journalism must separate fact from opinion to maintain credibility.
Media polarization feeds public echo chambers.
Restoring trust will require structural and cultural change.
