The Final Word With Finn Ghosh-Leudke is a new journalistic podcast that critically revisits the year’s biggest headlines. In this episode, we compare Canadian and American coverage concerning the threat of tariffs on films to investigate how framing, bias, and news values operate in media today. Recorded as part of the course Journalism Here and Now at The University of British Columbia.

Great work! Made me really reflect on the absurdity of tariff policy, especially related to an industry that needs the diversity that comes from filming around the world.
Having an industry insider made the human impact of this reckless policy far clearer, I look forward to the future of the podcast!
