What Does Vigilance Mean After Newspapers?

from Zócalo Public Square · host Zócalo Public Square

For much of American history, newspapers held an exclusive role as democracy’s watchdog, sounding the alarm at any sign of corruption and abuse from those in power. But today there are fewer journalists than ever before, which means fewer people keeping watch. What does the death of newspapers mean for holding powerful institutions accountable? Voice of San Diego CEO Scott Lewis, Reportero director Bernardo Ruiz, and investigative journalist Carrie Lozano talk with Zócalo's Joe Mathews about who will become the guardian of democracy.
