What an amazing man Bob McChesney was. I first met him when I worked at @fairmediawatch.bsky.social (late 90s-early'00s), when he was on the board. His media criticism work -- and later, his media activism -- was transformational, his spirit expansive.

What a mensch. May his memory be a revolution.

With great sadness, I'm sharing the news that media scholar and Free Press co-founder Robert W. McChesney died on Tuesday in Madison, Wisconsin. He was 72.

His work changed the course of my life. He was a mentor and friend for more than 25 years.

May his memory be a blessing.
