EP 90 SPx Podcast w/ Joe Hamilton: Ray Roa - Creative Loafing Tampa 2-15-23

In this podcast, Hamilton and Roa cover the evolution of local news, and the alt-weekly in particular. They discuss the role of reporters in the local community, including how journalists strive for objectivity, what is worth reporting on, and what grace, civility, and good faith debate looks like in a world where much of our activity and perspective lives online for all to see.
