David Ake) As the media landscape has evolved over the past few decades along with the rise of the internet and social media the importance of fact-based, deeply researched investigative journalism has become increasingly clear.

On today’s show we’re continuing our series of conversations with speakers from the Naples Discussion Group’s 20-21 schedule by talking with professor Ted Bridis, he is Rob Hiaasen Lecturer in Investigative Reporting in the Department of Journalism at University of Florida. He’ll be presenting a virtual lecture on Friday, January 29 on the Importance of Investigative Journalism in Our Current Environment.
