Press Freedom & COVID-19
What is the role of the news media and how can we protect the freedom of the press during a crisis like the one we face today? We answered these questions and more on the PeliCast with our Director of Communications Morgan Wampold, Baton Rouge TV Reporter Harrison Golden (WGMB/WVLA-TV), Dan McCaleb, Executive Editor of The Center Square, and First Amendment Attorney Scott Sternberg. Check it out! (NOTE: Unfortunately, our audio dropped out with about 10 minutes remaining in the show. If you have questions we didn’t answer, please send them to us.)
