    Ghost Newspapers, News as a Civic Good, and Rebuilding Trust in Journalism

    Over the last 20 years, over 2000 local newspapers have shut down, leading to a 65% drop in the number of journalists and a sharp increase in political polarization. Steven Waldman founded Rebuild Local News, a non-profit coalition of over 3000 local newspapers, to combat this decline and advocate for local journalism. How did the rise of Craigslist kill the local newspaper? What can local papers learn from public libraries? And is it time to completely rethink the role of news in our society?

    Political software is a walled garden. Can anyone break through?

    Political software is a walled garden. Can anyone break through?

    If you're a Democratic candidate in the U.S., you use Democratic software; if you're Republican, you use Republican software. But what if you're independent? You're out of luck, locked out of both the technology and the voter data required to run a competitive campaign. Farhad Mohit founded and ran Flipagram, now better known as TikTok. After Flipagram's acquisition, Farhad felt like he had the necessary experience to challenge the walled garden of political tech, starting a suite of tools for independents known as Good Party.
