A Romanian documentary about health care corruption is one of the best journalism movies ever made. This week, Jacob and Tara watched the horrifying, soul-shattering Collective. We discuss how a team of sports journalists uncovered such a massive story, and what happens when the press bows down to authorities. Skip your murder podcasts this week and watch this film instead.
