In this book, Professor Robert McChesney engages in an academic dialogue with professors from various Spanish universities in response to his talk titled "Does the Collapse of Journalism Fuel the Rise of Fascism?" (2022). From a critical perspective, this encounter raises questions related to power and technology in the media, propaganda, local journalism, democracy, public broadcasters, media literacy, and the role of philanthropists, among other issues. Professor McChesney's responses effectively constitute a compendium of his main ideas and research, and also reflect his significant role as an advocate for freer and more independent media and greater civic engagement in public affairs. At the same time, McChesney conveys the importance of effective communication and collective over individual action in order to tackle the problems that we are all called upon to address.
