Anybody with a cellphone can broadcast live to the world in the age of social media. That's a far cry from the days when only TV stations had the ability to do that, and it was expensive.
Once a month we take up issues and events in the media in the segment Signals & Noise. Our regulars discuss the hot topics: Chris Lucas from the Southern Oregon University Communication faculty, and Humboldt State University Journalism Chair Victoria Sama.
Join us for a discussion that can include topics as disparate as virtual-reality cinema and the best Jane Austen books.
