Host: Matt Murphy The Maine Monitor and WERU will host Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink filmmaker Rick Goldsmith for a three-day program in Maine, October 8-10. This program is a radio preview of the film, with Matt Murphy hosting Goldsmith and Maine Center for Public Interest Reporting Executive Director Micaela Schweitzer-Bluhm. Stripped for Parts: American Journalism on the Brink is the story of one secretive hedge fund that is plundering America’s newspapers and the journalists who are fighting back. Who will control the future of America’s news ecosystem: Wall Street billionaires concerned only with profit, or those who see journalism as an essential public service and the lifeblood of our democracy?
