About this listen
In the wake of recent violence at the Traverse City Wal-Mart, this episode of Currently focuses on more than just the facts—we’re exploring our shared responsibility in how we talk about tragedy. Beth Milligan (Traverse City Ticker) and Christal recap the latest developments in the case and to take a deeper look at the ethical role all of us—journalists, commentators, and even social media users—play in shaping the media landscape.
We also go behind the scenes on what it’s like to report major stories in real time, and why accurate, empathetic coverage matters more than ever.
Plus, we lighten things up with a surprising dinner date story involving a '70's star—and our very own celebrity dinner date wish list.
This episode is brought to you by lead underwriter Golden-Fowler Home Furnishings: Home Fashion Elevated, located on S. Garfield Avenue in Traverse City. Support also comes from West Shore Bank – committed to the well-being of the community, and The Coin Slot Arcade Bar – a chill hangout in Traverse City featuring a full bar, pinball machines, and a great selection of drinks.
Currently is a Compass Local Podcast produced by Pancake Boy Productions.
