About this episode
A free press, ideally, learns what is happening in our democracy and passes that information on to us. How, then, do we learn the truth about this country when there’s so much misinformation, so many opinions, claims of fake news and widespread mistrust of the truth? Joining us again for part 2 are Melissa Wasser and Erin Coyle . This episode first aired in October of 2020.
