Welcome to In Reality, the podcast about truth, disinformation and the media. I'm your host Eric Schurenberg, long time journalist and media executive, now the founder of the Alliance for Trust in MediaThe news business has been in freefall, as every listener to In Reality is aware. The plunge has been steepest in local journalism. We lose two local news outlets a week, on average. Half the counties in America have only one news outlet or none at all. Dousing that five alarm fire is the mission of today's guest, Mackenzie Warren, director of the Local News Accelerator at Northwestern University's Medill School, hands down one of the premier journalism schools in the country. Mackenzie is a long-time local newspaper executive himself; at Medill, he now helps local newsrooms in Illinois discover innovations aimed at putting themselves on a path to sustainability. Mackenzie joined Eric recently at his class on the future of media at the University of Chicago. They discussed the role of local news in counteracting polarization, the incoming class of new journalists and how they view their careers, as well as a few bright stars in the local news firmament, like the Minnesota Star Tribune, Chicago's hyper-local Block Club and Atlanta Journal Constitution.Website - free episode transcriptswww.in-reality.fmProduced by Tom Platts at Sound Sapiensoundsapien.comAlliance for Trust in Mediaalliancefortrust.com

Soap operas have long been trivialized as low-brow women's entertainment. Even the term “soap” is pejorative when describing television. But there's a deeper story to tell about the genre that changed storytelling on the small screen. Irna Phillips doesn't get enough credit for her creation. She's the Chicago woman who birthed the daytime serial for radio in the 1930s and ushered it onto television in the 1950s. Phillips established staples in the genre like the cliff-hanger; she was a prolific writer who knew the daytime audience wanted to see their own problems in stories. As she summed it up in 1947: “[T]heir own conflicts, their own heartache, their hopes and their own dreams. Everything isn't happiness, is it? No.” Beyond the melodrama and romantic escapism, soaps took bold risks, embracing social consciousness with groundbreaking women-centered storylines. “Daytime dramas have grappled with social change and offered thoughtful explorations of romantic and familial relationships to an extent rarely seen in evening schedules, with controversial subject matter airing to little notice and thereby little upset,” said soap scholar and University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee professor Elana Levine. Whether you know it or not, soaps are a foundation of U.S. television. They've given us the medium's longest-running scripted series — and worlds that do not end. What Natalie read: “Afternoon Delight: Why Soaps Still Matter” by Carolyn Hinsey “Her Stories: Daytime Soap Opera and US Television History” by Elana Levine “The Survival of Soap Opera: Transformations for a New Media Era” edited by Sam Ford, Abigail De Kosnik and C. Lee Harrington “Worlds Without End: The Art and History of the Soap Opera” from the Museum of Television and Radio Natalie Moore is a senior lecturer at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism.

My guest for Episode #295 of the My Favorite Mistake podcast is Josh Chernikoff, a seasoned expert in the education sector with nearly 20 years of experience in EdTech, sales, and entrepreneurship. Episode page with video, transcript, and more Josh is the founder of the EdSales Elevation Experience, a 12-week program designed to help education companies build lead-generation engines that consistently book 12-20 high-quality sales calls per month. He has worked with hundreds of thousands of students and educational leaders, helping businesses scale with innovative, repeatable sales processes. Josh is also a Milken-Penn GSE Competition Judge, StartEd Mentor, and host of the podcast "Breaking the Grade." In this episode, Josh Chernikoff shares the hard lessons he learned from choosing the wrong business partners and how that misalignment impacted his second company. He reflects on how personality fit and communication styles can make or break a business relationship, emphasizing the importance of testing collaborations on smaller projects before fully committing. Josh also opens up about a pricing strategy misstep that led to significant financial losses and the unexpected impact of the pandemic on his after-school enrichment business. Beyond mistakes, we dive into what makes a repeatable, scalable sales process—why businesses struggle with lead generation, how to refine messaging, and the importance of credibility in attracting the right clients. Josh explains his Raise Your Hand campaign as a way to identify high-quality leads and tailor sales efforts to what potential customers actually need. We also discuss the power of having one clear offer, the role of objections in refining sales strategies, and why he stays laser-focused on education sales despite his methodology's broader applicability. Toward the end, Josh shares stories from his early career as a TV sports broadcaster, including lessons learned at Northwestern's Medill School and the intensity of live television. Questions and Topics: What's your favorite mistake? Did you realize it was a mistake right away, or did that realization develop over time? What lessons did you take from that experience? How can someone evaluate whether a business partnership is the right fit before committing? Can you share more about the pricing change that didn't go as planned? How do you differentiate between handling objections in sales and truly learning from objections? Why limit your business to education sales when your methodology could apply more broadly? What are the most common sales mistakes you see, either in education or in general? How important is it to focus on finding the right leads versus just generating more leads? How do you identify high-quality leads and refine your targeting strategy over time? What role does messaging play in sales success, and how do you help clients improve it? How did your career start in TV sports broadcasting, and what led you to leave? What lessons from broadcasting have helped you in your current work? Was there a broadcast journalism equivalent to the Medill F? How should professionals use LinkedIn to position themselves effectively? What advice do you have for people struggling with lead generation? How do you know when it's time to pivot your business strategy based on market feedback?

In this episode of the podcast, I'm joined by two academics -- Julian Runge from Northwestern University's Medill School and Koen Pauwels from Northeastern University -- for a conversation about the methodological (and stylistic) distinction between marketing experimentation and probabilistic measurement. Julian has previously appeared on the podcast and recently contributed a guest article for Mobile Dev Memo, and he and I have co-authored a number of articles (including this Harvard Business Review piece). Koen runs the Marketing and Metrics blog as well as the Pauwels on Marketing newsletter on LinkedIn. Some of the topics addressed in our discussion include: Experimentation in marketing measurement; The most popular techniques for probabilistic measurement, and how they are implemented; How a firm can integrate experimentation into its marketing measurement efforts; How firms tend to improperly implement Media Mix Modeling; Whether it is possible to measure incrementality for a specific channel, using that channel's tools; How marketers should think about demonstrating the value of their efforts; How the value of brand equity can be measured and integrated into marketing measurement; How a firm should think about experimentation and opportunity cost.

Ellen and Dan talk with Jeffrey Schwaner, executive editor of Cardinal News, a nonprofit digital news outlet covering Southwest Virginia. It also covers something called Southside Virginia, which is an area south of the James River, near Richmond. Since we're taping this in Boston, we'll ask him to explain their coverage area in more detail. Jeff joined Cardinal News in September after nine years as a storytelling and watchdog coach — including five years as editor — of Gannett's two Virginia newsrooms, the News Leader in Staunton and The Progress-Index in Petersburg. Dan has a Quick Take that explores a key question: Does a lack of local news correlate with support for Donald Trump? A new study by the Local News Initiative at Northwestern University's Medill School finds that it does, although the writers caution that correlation is not causation. Ellen's Quick Take is on a mysterious website that popped up in Oregon after a 147-year-old paper called the Ashland Tidings folded. Called the Daily Tidings, it recently published story after story by a reporter named Joe Minihane, who supposedly skiied, hiked and ate his way through Southern Oregon.

Copper State of Mind: public relations, media, and marketing in Arizona
Read the transcript and notes for this episode on our website. The decline of local media outlets in the United States poses significant threats to democracy and community engagement. Abbie Fink and Adrian McIntyre discuss the phenomenon of "news deserts," areas devoid of reliable local news sources, drawing on a comprehensive study by Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, Media and Integrated Marketing Communications that tracks the scale and impact of shrinking local journalism. Adrian and Abbie underscore the consequences of losing local media outlets, such as decreased civic participation, increased political polarization, and the loss of accountability from local governments and institutions. Abbie emphasizes the need for news literacy, educating communities on the importance of diverse news sources and equipping them with the tools to discern credible local reporting from passive consumption of national clips. Supporting local journalism goes beyond subscribing to local newspapers. It involves participating actively in local media by reading, sharing, and financially supporting credible journalism. Despite the grim outlook, Adrian points out the resilience and entrepreneurial spirit driving new digital journalism initiatives, including nonprofit organizations like States Newsroom and newsletters like the Arizona Agenda and Tucson Agenda. Key Takeaways The decline of local journalism and the diminishing number of local news outlets has created "news deserts" across the United States. Research shows that more than half of the nation's counties have little to no local news coverage. Local news is critical for civic engagement; its absence correlates with lower voter turnout, reduced civic participation, and increased political polarization. Consumers must support local publications to ensure diverse voices and accurate reporting. Investing in local journalism through subscriptions and active engagement is essential to maintain informed communities and foster public understanding and civic responsibility.

A report out Monday from the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University finds that 127 newspapers around the country closed in the last year. It's part of a worsening trend, with communities losing the outlets that cover their local news. But the report also finds an uptick in online news sources funded by philanthropy. Prior Lake is an example of both these trends. Back in April, the Prior Lake American shut down along with five other newspapers that served the southwest metro. Now former Southwest News media general manager Laurie Hartmann is working to launch an online news source in Prior Lake.She spoke with MPR News host Nina Moini about it.

Rosemary podcasts live from New Orleans in this episode pulling members of JAWS, a 50-year-old feminist women's organization away from workshops at their annual Camp to talk about their current diverse assignments, from national politics, to mentoring young women journalists in reporting careers that make a difference, to writing about isolation, disinformation and other indignities of the Covid age. JAWS For nearly 40 years, the Journalism and Women's Symposium has advanced the professional empowerment and personal growth of women in journalism and also advocated for more inclusive coverage of diverse experiences and culture. Advance women in the field, is the belief, and you transform the world. At an annual “camp” and other events and projects JAWS is a powerful network of women who support each other through friendship, knowledge, tools and mentoring. Jodi Enda is the Washington bureau chief and senior correspondent for The Fuller Project, where she focuses on the effects of U.S. policies and politics on women and girls in America and around the world. She has covered government and politics at every level, from city hall to the statehouse to the White House and presidential campaigns. She has specialized in women's rights, challenges and emerging power, and lately that means the battle over abortion rights and the influence of female voters. Over her career she has been editor in chief of ThinkProgress; spearheaded CNN's 2016 election book, Unprecedented: The Election That Changed Everything; and covered the White House, Congress, presidential campaigns and national news for Knight Ridder newspapers.

Ashir Badami is quite likely the least interesting person in the room. His only claim to fame is bouncing around South and South East Asia as a kid with his family before somehow landing in Malta where the azure blue seas turned his wanderlust into a love of travel writing and poetry. He has lived in the shadows as a closet writer, and aspiring journalist (Go Medill!), and his passion for writing and literature has endured parochial boarding schools in South India (where Kerouac was banned) and even the vagaries of the West Coast Tech Bro scene where he made his living as a marketing zombie. He recently returned to the Chicago area with his amazing wife and highly-entertaining five-year-old. He currently teaches media innovation at his alma mater, the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University. The First Time is a live lit and music series recorded at Martyrs in Chicago's North Center neighborhood. Each reader tells a true first tale, followed by any cover of the storyteller's choosing, performed by our house band, The First Time Three. The First Time is hosted by Jenn Sodini. Production by Andy Vasoyan and Executive Producer Bobby Evers. Podcast produced by Andy Vasoyan. Recorded by Tony Baker.

This week on Black & Published, Nikesha speaks with Arionne Nettles, author of the book, We Are The Culture: Black Chicago's Influence on Everything. A university lecturer at Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism as well as a culture reporter, Arionne's book is as much a love letter to her city as it is putting the world on notice… that Chicago is the epicenter for all things culture and cool… with receipts. In our conversation, Arionne explains why writing this book was really about asking questions people had been waiting all their lives to answer. Plus… how she balanced Chicago's media reputation with the reality of the home she knows and loves. And… the stories she had to leave on the cutting room floor.

Crews are digging up soil and pumps are pulling water to clean up a leak at a power plant near Cohasset in northern Minnesota. Two weeks ago Tuesday, Minnesota Power reported that wastewater containing coal ash — the waste product created when coal is burned for power — had spilled from a pipeline at Boswell Energy Center.The company and the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency say about 5.5 million gallons of water containing ash leaked, with some of it reaching Blackwater Lake on the Mississippi River. As of Monday morning, the MPCA said about 639,000 gallons had been pumped back into the plant's system. Sampling from the area has found higher-than-normal levels of sulfate and boron.All this comes as the federal government is getting stricter this year with how coal ash and coal ash wastewater are regulated. Kari Lydersen has followed this as an energy reporter and investigative journalism professor with Northwestern's Medill School of Journalism. She joined MPR News host Cathy Wurzer with context.

A new investigation into police use of tasers follows how they've been used specifically in response to 911 mental health calls. The research shows that they can cause death as well as long term harm, and also that they are deployed disproportionately against Black people. The investigation was done by MindSite News, a nonprofit journalism site dedicated to reporting on mental health in the U.S., exposing rampant policy failures and spotlighting efforts to solve them. MindSite did this research in collaboration with the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University. Joining me to discuss are researcher and journalist Sela Breen along with Josh McGhee, MindSite's Chicago Bureau Chief who focuses on the intersections of criminal justice & mental health.
