In an era where anyone with a smartphone can break news, traditional media and grassroots voices are colliding in powerful ways. MSNBC’s Joy Reid sits down with Chris Foster, CEO of OPRG, to explore how citizen journalism is reshaping public discourse, challenging institutions, and redefining trust in information. Together, they’ll unpack the opportunities and risks of this shift—and what it means for the future of storytelling, accountability, and democracy.
This Blackweek discussion is proudly sponsored by OPRG. We’re grateful for their generous support and commitment to right-sizing industries to help create more opportunity for equity and ownership.
