Read our full conversation in this month’s edition of @TheOtherWave. 🔗 Do you support defunding @CBCNews and broader journalism subsidy programs? Against it? In between? Sound off in this thread. 🧵 theotherwave.substack.com/p/if-poilievre…
@CJR @PierrePoilievre Although my interview didn’t make it into the CJR story, I figured there was no better time than now to share my nuanced thoughts on @PierrePoilievre's intention to defund @CBCNews and broader journalism subsidy programs.
My conversation with Lauren Watson (@laur_watso), a Delacorte Fellow with Columbia Journalism Review (@CJR) in my @TheOtherWave newsletter just got a little more real after Prime Minister @MarkJCarney recently called a snap election. 🗳️ theotherwave.substack.com/p/if-poilievre…
For more book and media recommendations, check out December’s edition of #TheOtherWave: theotherwave.substack.com/p/how-to-creat…
I highly recommend reading Pearce’s newsletters, “Journalism's fight for survival in a postliterate democracy” and “Journalism's biggest problems are now what we don't control.”
As a journalism nerd, I’m always reflecting on the current and future state of the industry. theotherwave.substack.com/p/how-to-creat…
