Lincoln Square just celebrated our first anniversary with you. We know that pro-democracy journalism is more important than ever and we’re honored to be part of the growing independent media landscape.
That’s why Executive Editor Susan J. Demas hosted this special on the future of independent media with some of the most interesting writers, radio hosts and media critics we know:
Jerusalem Demsas, founder of The Argument on Substack
Mark Jacob, who writes the "Stop the Presses" newsletter on Substack
Michelangelo Signorile, longtime host on SiriusXM Progress
Heather “Digby” Parton, founder of "Digby’s Hullabaloo"
We wanted to explore the landscape of independent journalism, from blogs that started it all in the early 2000s, to progressive media giving voice to perspectives long ignored in mainstream media, to new outlets starting on Substack and other platforms.
And of course, we didn’t ignore the state of corporate media during Donald Trump’s second term.
Please share your thoughts in the comments. And join Susan every week for First Draft at 11 a.m. ET Wednesdays.
