There are 3 problems with our media that are fueling polarization: 1. The closing of 2,000 local papers, which are typically not very partisan; 2. Cable news maximizing audience share by adopting political stances (Fox); and 3. Social media’s supercharging of conspiracy theories.

Today’s the 20th anniversary of my friend Kevin Richards’s death.(He’s to my rt.) Undiagnosed HCM, collapsed following a race. I got into journalism to write about sudden cardiac death in athletes. That’s the writing I cared most about, though hard to know if it helped anyone.
