Mario Koran of Wisconsin Watch joins The Recombobulation Area to talk about his ongoing coverage of culture war and political turmoil in Kiel, Wisconsin.
I appreciate the local dive into rural spaces. My time in rural Iowa witnessed coastal, click-bait companies buying up small papers and the self-told narrative on these rural spaces was increasingly driven by national media on the right and centered on nationalized culture wars that weren’t reflective of things like their own schools and teachers. I value that you’re shaping the rural narrative through local reporting!
