3. TED TALK. SUMMARY. 

The speaker is Chuck Plunkett. Chuck Plunkett advocates for greater public awareness and support of
quality local news. The main idea of the speaker is that when local news dies, do does our democracy.
Local newsrooms reflect all things that are happening in the government. A democracy is a government of
the people. The speaker notes that people are the ultimate source of power and authority. A local
newsroom acts like a mirror. Its journalists see the community and reflect it back. That information is
empowering. Local newspapers can influence politics greatly. According to Chuck Plunkett, reading a
local paper can mobilize 13 percent of nonvoters to vote. The speaker asks the society to save local
newspapers.
