We're sharing an episode from another series we think will be of interest to our listeners -- one that's closely related to our Season 8 series, The News: The Battle for Free Speech.

As the United States marks its 250th anniversary this year, our most basic freedom — the freedom of speech — is under attack. This immersive series takes you on a journey to look at the threats to free speech, from Trump to Silicon Valley. Series co-hosts Michael Fox and Marc Steiner explore the history of the fight for free speech and the battle being waged over it today, within the United States and abroad.

In this episode, Michael Fox is joined by Real News investigative journalist and Capitol Hill correspondent Taya Graham to map the assault on the American press.

The Battle for Free Speech is produced by The Real News Network. To hear the rest of the 8-part series, go here.
