This week is Stephen Colbert’s final on CBS, and it's part of a larger story behind modern media: consolidation. When a few companies own more of the places you get information, it affects how much corruption there is, how much you know about yourself and your neighbors and the fabric of society itself.
So much of the information we get now feels overwhelming but strangely thin. You'll learn why, as well as how local journalism was never just content. It was civic infrastructure.
Today's Front Pages Gallery mentioned in the episode.
Check out Dr. Sturg's book that teaches you how to tell when newsmakers are trying to deceive you.
