Margaret Talev covered American politics and the White House for 30 years, including working the campaign trail for presidential elections in 2008, 2012 and 2016 as a White House correspondent for Bloomberg News and McClatchy Newspapers. As Talev watched the events of Jan. 6, 2021, unfold, she wondered how thousands of her fellow citizens could stage a protest based on misinformation. In the aftermath, Talev wanted to focus her career efforts on the relationship between the news being produced and consumed by voters and how that impacted their views on democracy and governance. Talev was eventually hired to lead the Institute for Democracy, Journalism and Citizenship (IDJC), a joint effort of the Newhouse School and the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs. Talev discusses the mission and vision for the IDJC, how distrust in election results and politicians is at an all-time high, the importance of voters becoming media literate, the role citizens can play in addressing issues facing our democracy and the challenges artificial intelligence poses.

Tim Sheehan from the Fresno Bee and David Lightman from McClatchy Newspapers give an update on the high speed rail project.

All this week, we've spotlighted Governor Newsom's budget and how he's allocating a record surplus along with federal stimulus dollars. Some projects are receiving big dollars, while other are being shut out. One of the agencies receiving a funding boost in the beleaguered EDD. It's a department that's been dragged down by fraud investigations in recent months.

The crazy 2021 admissions cycle has come to an end as all colleges have released their decisions. With many colleges experiencing significant increases in applications, the waitlist pool is larger than in years past and many are predicting the wait could extend to August. Accepted student days have rolled into another round of zoom events with admissions officers. Some schools are offering limited college visits for accepted students but overall, students are left in a situation where they may have to make a final decision on a college they have yet to step foot on. Lee Bierer joins us today to share her thoughts on the lessons learned from this admissions cycle, advice for students on a waitlist, and tips for juniors to get a jumpstart on their essays. We also discussed the latest Netflix release of Operation Varsity Blues.

It's official: A New Jersey hedge fund has the winning bid for McClatchy Newspapers -- including the flagship Sacramento Bee. And this isn't just any hedge fund. It's Chatham Asset Management, owner of The National Enquirer and a stable of other grocery store tabloids. The Enquirer, you'll remember, pulled a shameful catch-and-kill on Karen McDougal, the Playboy model who said she had an affair with Donald Trump, in order to influence the 2016 election. As print media breathes its death rattle, hedge funds and billionaires have crept in to buy what's left of the country's remaining newspapers. Often to terrible results. They've gutted newsrooms. They've immorally influenced editorial direction. You get the idea. Last year, Fortune reported that Chatham has a history of aggressive, litigious behavior, and has used Trump's former fixer, Michael Cohen, in at least one attempt to stop a former executive from suing. We fear more of the same behavior on the horizon. Oh, and did you hear that Mayor Darrell Steinberg is officially pushing for yet another strong mayor initiative? Whereas former mayor Kevin Johnson tried and failed twice to pass 'strong mayor', Steinberg appears to think that he has the trust of the people of Sacramento to hand him more power. We discuss how we don't like that the current city manager can continue to allow our police force to kill our Black and brown neighbors, as well as terrorize people experiencing homelessness. But we also don't trust a mayor who lied to the people of Sacramento about Measure U and tried to give a plurality of that tax revenue to the cops. By the way, California is shut down again. So stay at home, brew some tea and enjoy our perfect takes.

Joseph Menn: Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World Cult of the Dead Cow Mudge DilDog Sir Dystic Oxblood Ruffin Lord Digital Mixter Psychedelic Warlord You might not know who they are but they changed your life more than Lewis Rainieri, the I-pod and YouTube put together. Have you ever seen Hackers? The Net? Antitrust? Sneakers? If you’re a subscriber to the InSecurity podcast… odds are you’ve seen and love those movies as well as a list of others we could mention. If you like any of these flicks, then you know… or should know… that they all owe a debt to a group of men and women who changed the world over 30 years ago Long before there was a multi-billion dollar cyber industry, there were some ethical hackers who showed us that the Silicon Valley emperors had no clothes. They looked like misfits, but they showed us how insecure the Internet was and how to make it better” -- Richard A. Clarke, first White House "Cyber Czar" on Cult of the Dead Cow “We were pirates, not mercenaries… Pirates have a code.” -- Rob Beck; Former member @stake and Cult of the Dead Cow Ninja Strike Force; Much @Stake: The Band of Hackers That Defined an Era  In this episode of InSecurity, Matt Stephenson has the rare privilege of a chat with best selling author Joseph Menn on his latest blockbuster book, Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World. It’s been over 30 years, but Joe spoke with the original punk rock hacking collective about what they did and how they changed the world. Oh… and one of them is running for President of the United States. About Joseph Menn Joe Menn (@josephmenn) has been a professional journalist for three decades, specializing in technology stories since 1999. His  most recent book, Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World, was published in June 2019. The New York Times Book Review said: “The tale of this small but influential group is a hugely important piece of the puzzle for anyone who wants to understand the forces shaping the internet age." An adaptation of the book for Reuters revealed that Beto O'Rourke had been a member of the enormously influential group and drew the most engagement on Reuters.com in its history. Previously, Joe wrote Fatal System Error: the Hunt for the New Crime Lords who are Bringing Down the Internet. That book was the first serious journalism accusing the Russian intelligence agencies of working with organized cyber criminals. It also exposed Gambino crime family investments in Internet gambling operations, and was cited in that context by the Miami Herald and McClatchy Newspapers in their Pulitzer Prize-winning coverage of the Panama Papers money-laundering leaks.  Cult of the Dead Cow: How the Original Hacking Supergroup Might Just Save the World The shocking untold story of the elite secret society of hackers fighting to protect our privacy, our freedom — even democracy itself Cult of the Dead Cow is the tale of the oldest, most respected, and most famous American hacking group of all time. Though until now it has remained mostly anonymous, its members invented the concept of hacktivism, released the top tool for testing password security, and created what was for years the best technique for controlling computers from afar, forcing giant companies to work harder to protect customers. They contributed to the development of Tor, the most important privacy tool on the net, and helped build cyberweapons that advanced US security without injuring anyone. With its origins in the earliest days of the Internet, the cDc is full of oddball characters — activists, artists, even future politicians. Many of these hackers have become top executives and advisors walking the corridors of power in Washington and Silicon Valley. The most famous is former Texas Congressman and current presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke, whose time in the cDc set him up to found a tech business, launch an alternative publication in El Paso, and make long-shot bets on unconventional campaigns. Today, the group and its followers are battling electoral misinformation, making personal data safer, and battling to keep technology a force for good instead of for surveillance and oppression. Cult of the Dead Cow shows how governments, corporations, and criminals came to hold immense power over individuals and how we can fight back against them.  About Matt Stephenson Insecurity Podcast host Matt Stephenson (@packmatt73) leads the Security Technology team at Cylance, which puts him in front of crowds, cameras, and microphones all over the world. He is the regular host of the InSecurity podcast and host of CylanceTV Twenty years of work with the world’s largest security, storage, and recovery companies has introduced Matt to some of the most fascinating people in the industry.
