The news about the News

Author: Nebulous Media

Eliana Johnson and Chris Stirewalt love the news business but they hate a lot of whats happening to it these days. Using their decades of experience in print, digital and TV news they tell the story behind the stories, always on the lookout for bias, sloppy reporting and, well, just plain wretched journalism. Every week they help you to be a better, smarter news consumer.
