Show Notes

You see it on TV, hear it on the radio and read it in the newspapers. The news media loves covering politics, from national government all the way down to city government and school board races. With municipal elections next month and the presidential election only months away, Gary Castor chats with City Editor Rebecca Martin about how reporters at the Jefferson City News Tribune cover elections and what strategies the newspaper uses to reach a wider audience, all while trying to remain fair throughout its coverage.
