October 17, 2024
In the 1960s, just a few TV anchors delivered the national news to households across America. Today, the accessibility of the internet has democratized broadcasting – and brought with it a host of unintended consequences. Syracuse University’s Professor of Popular Culture Robert Thompson from the S. I. Newhouse School of Journalism joins Central Current Radio hosts Dr. Rick Wright and Maximilian Eyle to discuss the evolution of the 24-hour news cycle, the loss of faith in media institutions, and the pros and cons of an information space where anyone can have a voice.
