Green Root Podcast #101: ANTI-ENVIRONMENTAL MEDIA: INEPT OR CORRUPT?

On episode 101 of the Green Root Podcast—the official podcast of Eco-Integrity Alliance—host and former investigative journalist Josh Schlossberg tries to make sense of whether most media outlets are unable or unwilling to accurately and honestly cover environmental topics.

Josh talks about:

-The ideological and partisan bias he uncovered while working as an award-winning environmental journalist

-His experience as an ecosystem advocate interfacing with media only for them to cover up, misreport, or spread disinformation about ecological topics

-Whether bad environmental reporting is the result of an inability or refusal of journalists to do their jobs

-If it’s possible to hold media accountable to a basic standard of journalistic ethics

-How it’s past time to create new media that accurately reports on environmental issues while exposing the propaganda of legacy and “alternative” outlets

The mission of Eco-Integrity Alliance (eco-integrityalliance.org) is to unite U.S. grassroots ecosystem advocates through common campaigns of mutual support.
