Crisis in Local News = Crisis in Democracy
The global pandemic has impacted nearly every industry -- including local journalism, which was on shaky ground even before COVID-19. Margaret Sullivan is the media columnist for the Washington Post, and in her new book she sounds the alarm on the disappearance of local media outlets. She speaks with Michel Martin about the danger this poses -- and what needs to happen before it’s too late.
