Description

August 8, 2025: Randy Holhut, news editor with Vermont Independent Media, and John Walters, the journalist behind The Vermont Political Observer, join today's discussion. They share thoughts on Gov. Phil Scott's approach to working with the Trump Administration and US Rep. Becca Balint's efforts to build alliances across the aisle. 

Being journalists, we must also discuss the state of Vermont's newsrooms. That there are positives and challenges will surprise no one. But what about the use of AI-generated articles?
