(4/29/2022) Clash explores the political, economic, social, and technological forces that have shaped the relationship between U.S. presidents and the press during times of crisis. In addition to Trump’s presidency, Clash examines those of John Adams, Abraham Lincoln, Woodrow Wilson, Franklin Roosevelt, Richard Nixon, Ronald Reagan, Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama.

Some of these presidents faced military or international crises. Others were challenged by economic downturns or political scandals. Join us when we examine what happened between presidents and the press during these pivotal times, in order to further understand how we arrived at our current troubled state of affairs, on this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large.
