the newsroom is situated in the city is a beacon.enging for these corporations, or media companies to uphold drives them deeper into their communities mixture wasn't in the process of making it more accessible. >> i love the positive gloss and i'd be curious because there's what you think too. that's been a significant disrupter in the fact that journalists are now working from home and getting these but that's life-threatening. depending on who you are and where you're going. so that's a real limit on the ability of journalists to do recording but i think that what you think about the new york times , it's it's a position at a placewhere i don't know how many thousands , is it millions of people that build from the port authority and a times square in a single day and see this gigantic building that they it's beautiful and very nearly like a skyscraper to the new york times. and i think chicago is the ultimate example of all this because chicago tribune is like having a gothic cathedral in the middle of michigan avenue. and you know

i think you would hope because you don't want a lot of journalism in the newsroom. you want them out and about. so we would hope so but my worry is at a time like this you don't have to go downtown. youu aren't going to encounter a homeless person every day on the street before you get on the metro or write a city bus. so you are encounter people outside of your daily routine and i really worry about that. you are put in certain situations where you're not used to beingmi in. you joined the times at a time when your are coming from san francisco and i put the question back on you. >> it's interesting because and i'll ask you this in a second there's an ambivalence the an ambivalence that courses through your book and ig feel and to fd about this too. on the one hand there are all of the cities and minneapolis it's interesting. when i worked at the "star tribune" in minneapolis it was very prominently downtown with the "star tribune" carved in stone into the top of the building. you were going to a vikings game and you were going to see the start tribune is this big

of where the newsroom is is a building downtown with security guards at all the entrances and wheres both the symbol that it's a powerful institution but also an alienating model wherewe the nes is made behind closed doors somewhere and is there a possibility that the real estate has gotten powerful for the companies to uphold that it actually sends them deeper into their communities and makes journalism as a process more accessible? >> i love the positive and covid has been significant in the fact that journalists are now working from home but it's like depending on who you are and where you're going. itit is a limit on the mobilityf journalists to do reporting but ii think that if you think about "the new york times," it's positioned in a place where i don't know how many thousands is that millions of people that go through the authority in times square every day and see the gigantic building that's like beautiful and very clearly a skyscraper to "the new york times." i think chicago is like the ultimate example. you don't realize now it's a historical landmark that you can go int

but newsrooms and a lot cities have the classic a deal of where the newsroom is situated in the citys the beacon in downtown with security guards at all of the entrances. it is both the symbol that this has a powerful institution holding the powerful accountable down the road from city hall but also potential a monolith where the news is madee behind closed doors and and is there a possibility that is those new rooms have gotten challenging for thesen corporations to uphold but sending a deeper into the communities to make it more accessible. >> because it's easy it has been they are now working from home and then depending on who you are and where you are going. so that's a real limit for the reporting that if you think about "the new york times" it is a position and the place and at theat port authority that is beautiful and very clearly at "the new york times" and that is the ultimate example of the chicago tribune. but my students don't realize now that is historical and you can go in mean that is the chicago tribune. but i think that loss of the symbol and that loss of being a m
