The Infrastructure of Truth

from Signal & Noise · host Podcaster

Local newspapers are vanishing at twice the rate of coal plants, leaving behind 'news deserts' where misinformation flourishes unchecked. We examine how the collapse of local journalism is quietly reshaping American democracy from the ground up, and why the communities losing their papers are becoming laboratories for post-truth politics.
