This edition: Eric Alterman: What Kind of Journalism Supports Democracy?
TweetEpisode Details
Original tape date: December 17, 2024. First aired: January 14, 2025.Historian Eric Alterman loves footnotes and cares a lot about where information comes from. Concerned that bad information is crowding out good information-and that the GOP doesn't care, he is unwilling to simply accept what he's read or heard. Alterman urges students to think critically: to evaluate the quality of the source providing the information.
