Why Don't You Do Stories like This More Often?

We report on the reporters! OK, sort of. Meet Dave Spratt from the Institute for Journalism and Natural Resources who takes journalists around the Great Lakes to get them into the environments they’re reporting on and to talk with scientists and researchers. Then we meet one of those reporters: Lester Graham from Michigan Public (reporter) who has been doing award-winning work about the environment for decades.
