About this listen

 Tim Egan is a Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist, National Book Award–winning author, and longtime New York Times columnist who publicly challenged the media narrative around Amanda Knox’s case when few others would. In this episode, Amanda and Tim unpack how predatory journalism, cultural bias, and economic incentives fuel rushes to judgment, how misinformation erodes our ability to agree on basic facts, and why truth telling becomes harder and more necessary when narratives turn tribal. They also explore why history offers both warning signs and hope, and how ordinary individuals can still bend the arc toward justice. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
