Manage episode 311722450 series 3173565
News never sleeps and neither do we! (Seriously, the WFH lifestyle has really messed with our sleep schedules and our consumption of social media.) Nevertheless, before we get into the nitty gritty of opinion-based battles, it’s time to check our sources. Luckily, we’re joined by resident “baby journalist” Morgan Mullings, a Report for America Corps member and staff reporter for the Bay State Banner, for an on the record chat about fake news in the age of social media reporting. Join us for a fascinating discussion about why Morgan chose to pursue a career in journalism and her take on why local newspapers are critical sources of information. We also discuss distrust of mass media and how social media has changed the landscape of journalism. So, grab your newspaper or pull up your Twitter account as we dive into some breaking news stories, and even a few conspiracy theories, on this week’s episode.
