The future of local journalism is increasingly being shaped by two fundamental questions: Who should pay for it, and what should it produce? Those questions were at the center this conversation between E&P Publisher Mike Blinder and media critic, author and journalism educator Jeff Jarvis. The discussion grew out of two recent E&P Reports episodes that sparked debate beyond E&P's audience: an interview with Rebuild Local News founder Steven Waldman about public policy funding for journalism that drew a response from The Wall Street Journal, and a New York Press Association panel on newsroom cadence, AI and audience expectations that prompted a published rebuttal from publisher Christian Hendricks. Together, the debates raised larger questions about journalism's future, sustainability and purpose—questions Jarvis was eager to tackle.

According to a recent study by Northwestern University's Medill School of Journalism, a quarter of the country's newspapers have shuttered since 2005. And in less than two years, they are predicting that total will creep up to a third. They're calling it a “crisis for our democracy,” where news deserts are growing and leaving communities with limited access to critical news and information needed to make decisions in their daily lives. On this episode of “The Eagle,” former Buffalo News editor, public editor of The New York Times and media columnist for The Washington Post Margaret Sullivan heads up a panel on the fate of local journalism and the future of democracy, featuring Judy Patrick of the New York Press Association, Capital Region Independent Media publisher Mark Vinciguerra, NewsGuild president John Schleuss, and our own Times Union editor in chief Casey Seiler.

SHOWNOTES One in four or 18 million children in the US have at least one parent who is an immigrant and while children of immigrants feature frequently in immigration policy debates in the U.S., the experiences and challenges of immigrant parents are rarely discussed. This episode's guest is Masha Rumer, a writer and journalist, whose new book is Parenting with an Accent: How immigrants honor their heritage, navigate setbacks, and chart new paths for their children. Masha's work has appeared in The New York Times, The Washington Post, Literary Hub, Parents, Scary Mommy, and others, winning awards from the New York Press Association. Her new book combines a personal story of her experiences as an immigrant from the former Soviet Union with solid research and analysis to explore how the changing face of immigrant America–whether it is skilled immigrants, refugees, and other newer immigrant groups–is embodied in the next generation. Episode highlights: With Masha's family spread across Eastern Europe, including Russia and Ukraine, she reflects on what it means to be Russian in the U.S. today and the current backlash against Russians. The long history of U.S. immigration where different groups--Chinese, Sikhs, Japanese and recently, Asian Americans--have come under attack at one time or another. The challenges of explaining the complicated histories and politics of war-torn homelands to our children growing up in the U.S. How becoming a parent is a reckoning for immigrants as they consider issues of identity, culture, and how to pass on their heritage to their children The complexities of teaching a native language to second-generation immigrant children Why education still remains "an immigrant's currency" and is a pathway to the American Dream The current status of immigration issues in the U.S.: exploring the "melting pot" vs "salad bowl" metaphors Masha's book: Parenting with an Accent Follow Masha on Twitter and Instagram Be sure to check out these other resources!
