Edhat owner and publisher Lauren Bray joins the panel in the latest episode of “Newsmakers TV,” offering some up-close-and-personal perspective on the recent spate of moves by news organizations, in Santa Barbara and beyond, to terminate the public comment feature on online stories, as she covers the ways and means that she and her team use to monitor and manage trolls. Nick Welsh reports on real-life impacts on the lives of real people of the deliberations now ongoing over the $1 billion county budget, Laura Capps talks about the fall-out following her op-ed, posted on Politico, about the non-family friendly policies of Congress, and then the gang gossips about campaigns, from Sheriff to City Council and School Board.
