This season we've talked with journalists, thought leaders, and influencers who've visited Serenbe about how their lives - and the industries they report on - have changed in the wake of coronavirus.
Today's guest is Charles Bethea, a journalist and staff writer for The New Yorker who has been covering the pandemic, and whose latest articles feature the first weekend of protests in Atlanta and Georgia's primary election. We talk with Charles about what stories he's working on, how his editors choose stories and how he remains objective throughout the reporting process.
