Is it fake news?  No, it’s shallow reporting according to Fred Francis.  Fred is a Two-time Emmy award winning broadcast journalist that has over 46 years of experience in the communications industry. He retired as a senior correspondent after 30 years at NBC News with a longstanding expertise in national and international security.  We have an interesting conversation about the evolution of journalism and how we as consumers need to do our due diligence and seek out information.  Fred sheds light on the ins and outs of the news world and why it has changed so drastically in the past 10 years.  He also shares some of his fascinating stories of investigative reporting from Miami crime in the 1960’s to working at the Pentagon through the Gulf war.  We couldn’t chat about news and not mention the current day issues of deciphering fact from false information and how this administration treats the media.
