THE DIPLOMAT'S CABINET PODCAST | THE POWER DIPLOMAT

Journalism is in crisis. But what if the antidote isn’t national — it’s local?

In this episode of The Diplomat’s Cabinet, we sit down with political scientist and co-founder of The New Bedford Light, Daniela Melo, to talk about why local journalism may be democracy’s last, best hope.

From the closure of community newspapers to declining trust in mainstream media, we break down how non-profit, community-driven newsrooms can rebuild credibility and civic engagement — and why this matters not just in the U.S., but globally.

An urgent conversation on community, trust, power and the future of democracy — one city at a time.
