A recent headline from a study caught Tim’s eye when it questioned whether local news was doing enough to hold public officials accountable. As it so happens, some of the top research on news is happening right here in North Carolina.
This week, Phil Napoli, director of the DeWitt Wallace Center for Media and Democracy and professor at the Sanford School of Public Policy at Duke University, joins Tim to talk about the state of the news business, challenges from a business perspective and what the future might look like.
