Your Heard Tell Show for Wednesday, July the 13th is turning down the noise and getting to the information we need on some data and reporting that the American public is tuning out the headlines and trending issues as news consumption plummets, we'll discuss the particulars and the why. While on the topic of news consumption, Reuters has some worldwide data out about how news is covered and consumed by the world, and thier Digital News Report 2022 has some really fascinating and telling stats for us to consider, including how many folks think news intrudes on their social media, why it matters whether your entry point to a news story is social media or traditional outlets, and the rise of things like YouTube and podcasting that are replacing news media outlets. Our guest today is returning favorite James Czerniawski is back to once again hash out the ongoing Elon Musk v Twitter saga we've been covering - not to mention news and social media has been obsessing over - since April. James breaks down not only the tech side, but how a unique part of the legal system now has control of what happens next, where Twitter goes from here, and what we should have learned from the months of headlines and controversies. James also delves into the cultural side of the story, and how mixing politics, culture, and tech is something we will be seeing more and more of not only in the headlines but also in campaigns, legislation, and regulation. We go to the UK and review the 8 candidates of leaderships in the Conservative Party as voting rounds begin to replace Boris Johnson, we'll talk through those standing for the position and how the process plays out between now and 5 September. We finish up with a food program in Michigan that is filling the summer gap for kids who rely on school meals to get by. All that and more on this Wednesday edition of Heard Tell.
