Liz Owens joins us to describe what investigative reporting is, and how she ensures that we have access to more than the routine 90 second stories. Using the Tyrique Robinson case as an example, we talk about how much time she spends reading regulations and laws, and how her natural curiosity and/or the public can set off a major investigation. She explains how she threads the needle between official reports vs. hearsay, how media exists to hold governments accountable, and how they follow up on system failures. If you have anything to report, please text her at 803-624-9291, or email at [email protected].
