On today’s program, we look at the state of the media as we hear updates from Craig Aaron, CEO and president of FreePress.net about their latest campaigns fighting big media consolidation at the FCC, including on matters of net neutrality, and spearheading initiatives to revive local journalism. In the second half of the show we’re joined by Jesse Franzblau, policy analyst with Open the Government coalition to discuss recent and ongoing attacks on journalists and the free press.
