On the Media

The Camp Fire in California is the deadliest in the state's history, leaving the entire city of Paradise in ashes.ย Parts of Malibu were destroyed by the Woolsey Fire, which firefighters are still trying to bring under control as of this writing. Every year, the press rushes to the scene to capture the fury and the heroic images of efforts to manage fires, but we may be missing a deeper, more dangerous story. In August, when the Mendocino Complex Fire was raging, Bob spoke to historian Stephen J. Pyne aboutย what the typical media narratives overlook and how we can rethink them.ย
