Jack Brewster, founder and CEO of Newsreel, joins the show to talk about reinventing journalism for the algorithmic age. A former politics reporter at Forbes and investigative editor at NewsGuard, Jack has reported on misinformation, social media manipulation, and the structural incentives that shape today’s digital landscape.

Now, he’s building a new kind of platform, one designed to compete with social media not by maximizing time spent, but by maximizing understanding.

In this conversation, we explore what’s broken about today’s information ecosystem, why “the follower” no longer matters, and how Newsreel aims to create habit forming news without burnout.
