For our Season 3 debut, we are joined by Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's David Haynes. We discuss critical community conversations around real policy solutions through groups like the Idea Lab:  www.facebook.com/groups/SolutionsWis/ . We also get into the role of journalism in a click-bait era, the overlap of journalism and politics, racial dynamics in reporting, and how much political discourse has changed over the last 25 years.  David Haynes twitter: @DavidDHaynes Want to keep up Wisconsin Politics in 2019?
