801: The ingredients of a good media diet, with Vanessa Otero - a podcast by Bart Campolo

Awash in a sea of information and misinformation, most of us don't know how to navigate today's media landscape, especially when it comes to news. How do we know what sources we can trust? And as we enter a new year, if we approached it like a diet, what are the best and healthiest ingredients and recipes?

Our guest Vanessa Otero has thought about this more than most people. A former lawyer, she invented the Ad Fontes Media Chart, which places just about every news outlet you know (and many you don't) on an axis of political bias and reliability. In this conversation with Bart Campolo, she talks about the problems people face when trying to get reliable news and gives optimistic, practical advice on how to solve them. In the process she recommends the 1440 newsletter and other resources.
