Show Notes

Media reporter Jon Allsop, speaking from the sidelines of the COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, shares his reporting and analysis about how the gathering is being covered. Allsop, the author of CJR's The Media Today newsletter, tells Brian Stelter that "this summit brings all the storylines together." He describes the unequal nature of global news coverage, citing a "huge equality problem" that is evident at the summit, and major investments by outlets like The New York Times. "This is a huge news peg," he says, but reporters will need to stay on the story and see if countries "actually follow through on the pledges that they made here."
