Exploring the impact of capitalism on journalism and the quest for a reformed journalistic system for the public's benefit, with insights from the guest author.
We’ve been discussing the slow death of journalism for a long time, but what if it didn’t just “die”? This week, Adam speaks with Margot Susca, a professor at American University and author of Hedged: How Private Investment Funds Helped Destroy American Newspapers and Undermine Democracy, about how private equity firms have dismantled journalism and betrayed America.
