Molly Jong-Fast: We Need to Protect the ‘Kind of Journalism, the Kind of Reporting, that ProPublica Does’

RUSH EXCERPT:
JONG-FAST: "There are many fewer outlets. There is much less money. There is much less, you know, good will towards the mainstream media than there was eight years ago. This is just a sort of husk of a business, you know, anymore. And so, like, in my mind the goal has to be, because this is really, you know, protect norms and institutions, and that means the kind of journalism, the kind of reporting, that ProPublica does, very expensive, important, and hard to replicate anywhere else."
