Ricky Mathews—host of The Ricky Mathews Show and SuperTalk Outdoors—joins us to break down the corporate takeover of local media. As former president and publisher of three Gulf Coast newspapers (📰 The Sun Herald, 📰 The Press-Register, and 📰 The Times-Picayune), Ricky brings decades of experience and a front-row seat to the collapse of traditional journalism.
We cover:🏢 The shift from Knight Ridder to McClatchy ownership📱 The iPhone & Facebook’s disruption of newspapers🌪️ Katrina’s impact on Mississippi newsrooms🤖 Why AI might reshape jobs faster than we realize
This conversation asks the big question: Can local voices survive in a corporate media world?
