Public Sphere
Public Sphere is a newsletter for people trying to make sense of this current moment of global democratic decline — and not just in the context of Donald Trump. I’m particularly interested in the rise of misinformation driven by algorithms, and finding innovative ways to tell stories about that. As a journalist with reporting experience, historical knowledge, and language skills in Russia and Eastern Europe, I look to the region as a possible warning of how democracies can fall sometimes swiftly and sometimes imperceptibly.
