Stamm discusses research from his book "Dead tree media: manufacturing the newspaper in twentieth-century North America" and describes the evolving conversations about newspaper production. He also talks about the disconnect between consumers and newspaper production and the forgotten lumberjack labor which fuels the industry. He answers questions from the audience. The event is convened by John P. Beck professor of Human Resources and Labor Relations at MSU.
