Professors Nancy Gibbs and Thomas Patterson talk about how to rebuild the local news ecosystem and, with it, the civic health of America’s community life.

Professor Matthew Baum studied the content and Nielsen ratings for interviews on the three network Sunday morning talk shows—Meet the Press (henceforth MTP), Face the Nation (FTN), and This Week (TW). 

The Office of the President, the Nieman Foundation for Journalism, and the Shorenstein Center on Media, Politics, and Public Policy joined convened experts from the media to discuss the changing roles and responsibilities of the press. Journalists from The Weekly Standard, The Boston Globe, The Wall Street Journal, CNN and others shared their thoughts.
