Aug. 28th Monocle Radio: I join Tyler Brulé and Alex Jones

TAKEAWAY: Joining Tyler Brulé‘s Monocle Radio show this Sunday for a discussion of the future of journalism. Also appearing Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, Alex Jones. Show airs Sunday, at 12:00 CET

It’s another appearance for me in Tyler Brulé‘s Monocle Radio show this Sunday, August 30.  I always enjoy my interaction with Tyler and his guests.  This time, Tyler and his team will be talking to Alex Jones about his new book ‘Losing the News’ in which Jones, a Pulitzer Prize- winning journalist, explores how the dramatic changes sweeping the media have eroded the core news that has been the essential foundation of our democracy.

While applauding technological innovation, Jones also believes that what stands to be lost is the fact-based reporting that serves as a watchdog over government, and gives citizens what they need to perform as informed members of a community .

During his chat with the Monocle team, Jones will present his views, defend the premise of Losing the News and answer questions from Tyler and his editors.
My part will be to offer my own views and present what I see as the future of print.

For those interested: the show will air Sunday at 12:00 CET
