The election is over and Jenna and Domenic need to talk.
They reach out to New York Times bestselling author and political journalist, Ellis Henican to talk about election stress, political coverage and the impact it may or may not have had on the outcome?
They delve into the challenges faced by the media industry, including the rise of social media driven echo chambers where people only hear what aligns with their beliefs. Henican gives his take on how well the media handled the election, and whether the Trump ratings driven relationship with the media and whether the Trump and Harris campaigns received equal coverage.
As they discuss the future of journalism, they emphasize the need for honest reporting, fostering community, and adapting to new realities in the news.
