Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
With newspapers across our city and across the country consolidating resources, many have worried about the death of local investigative reporting. But one local alternative newspaper is demonstrating what happens when you dig deep into local politics. We explore how The Washington City Paper is driving the news – and framing public opinion- about the latest scandal surrounding Marion Barry.
