Hour 1: Why'd Governor Landry veto $36M in funding for New Orleans in the state budget?

This hour, Newell addresses the Louisiana Legislative Auditor Michael Waguespack calling for strict policy changes after a state report revealed that New Orleans paid out $4,292,517 in accrued, unused leave to departing civil servants, and Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry issuing extensive line-item vetoes striking between $33 million and $36 million in state funding from New Orleans projects and community programs. Then, Matt Rosen, CEO & founder of Allata, joins the show to discuss whether AI is shaping public opinion, what "balanced" really means, and who decides what information these tools deliver.
