About this listen

From TikTok trends to Hollywood mergers, the media world is evolving fast.


Most Americans — 83 percent of U.S. adults — use streaming services, according to the Pew Research Center.


Social media is competing with traditional outlets for our attention and trust.


And mergers are reshaping who creates, distributes and profits from the content we watch, read and listen to.


MPR News host Angela Davis talks with a media analyst and a pop culture critic about how technology, business and culture are transforming the media landscape and what it means.


Guests:


  • Eric Deggans is TV critic, media analyst and guest host at National Public Radio. Next month, he begins teaching as the Knight Professor of Journalism and Media Ethics at Washington and Lee University in Virginia. His book on how media outlets use racial issues to draw audiences is “Race-Baiter: How the Media Wields Dangerous Words to Divide a Nation.”
  • Neal Justin is the pop culture critic for the Minnesota Star Tribune. He is also an adjunct instructor at the University of St. Thomas.
