The virtues of a road-trip
In which the author talks about encountering a landscape that 'appears monolithic from a distance' but which 'is, upon closer scrutiny, almost infinitely varied'.

I’ve often written about the threats to local journalism. Here’s an excellent (surprisingly wry) two-part @europeanspod.bsky.social podcast breaking down the autocratic takeover of localmedia in Poland, Hungary & Bulgaria. Absolutely eye-popping details:
