There is no question that the news media isn't what it was when Camp Codger listeners were growing up. Today's senior citizens are challenged by the technology used to collect, develop and deliver the news, the unrelenting 24x7 news cycle, and the vast array of news sources and delivery platforms. In this episode, we explore the news media, then and now. Our conversation ranges from lamenting how local news is dying as the classified ad business disappears to offering up our techniques on how we handle the daily tsunami called the news.
