Yesterday, the Washington Post announced it would cut a third of its workforce in one of the most significant restructures in the newspaper's nearly 150 year history.

Today, we're unpacking what happened, why one of America's most storied newspapers is in this position, and what it means for journalism.

Hosts: Zara Seidler and Billi FitzSimons
