Former tech reporter Almar Latour is publisher of The Wall Street Journal and CEO of its parent company, Dow Jones (itself part of Rupert Murdoch's News Corp). @reckless1280 spoke to him for @theverge's Decoder podcast about AI, press freedom, news industry layoffs, and the future of the news industry. "I think we’ll see innovation in journalism and a lot of creativity — already and in years to come — where, undeniably, there’s this flood of information of mixed quality. There’s also, undeniably, a huge demand for reliable information. People are craving it more than ever before. In fact, the more noise there is, the more people are confused and the more they are asking, 'Hey, tell me what this means,'" says Latour.
