Noted political writer and editor Tim Redmond will share his views regarding the current status of the media. According to Tim, in an era when the President routinely makes statements with no basis in fact ? and when online media are full of fake news ? what are we supposed to believe? And how can San Francisco respond to the impacts of the Trump Administration?
Tim Redmond has been a political reporter in San Francisco for more than 30 years, most of that time at the left-leaning Bay Guardian. He is the founder and editor of 48 Hills, San Francisco’s independent, progressive, on-line daily newspaper. He also teaches for OLLI at SFSU.
