Breaking News Consumer's Handbook - Post-Mueller Report Edition
A pretty impressive 12-minute segment:
https://www.wnycstudios.org/story/post-mueller-report-revisiting-our-breaking-news-consumers-handbook-on-the-media
After two years of waiting, journalists finally began digging into the redacted version of the Mueller report this week. Reading through the some-450 pages, some media advocates discovered confirmation of reporting about turmoil within the White House and Russian efforts to interfere in the 2016 presidential election. Yet, many questions remain — uncertainties that will surely lead to speculative analysis and sloppy coverage.
OTM actually got a primer on how to tackle the Mueller media beat with the help of Eric Umansky deputy managing editor at ProPublica and a co-host of Trump, Inc., a podcast produced by ProPublica and WNYC. Back in early March, he helped Brooke prepare a Breaking News Consumer Handbook: Mueller Investigation Edition. In this interview, Bob and Eric re-evaluate the BNCH in light of the document dump, and discuss how new revelations should inform our news consumption going forward.
