The worsening of internet platforms, local demonstration against US-Israeli attack on Iran, and the proposed “Thriving Institutions” designation

On today’s Morning Magazine, KGNU reporter Don Davis and producer Joel Edelstein bring us a report on a spontaneous protest this weekend in Boulder, after the US-Israeli attacks on Iran.

Next, we heard an excerpt from a January Connections episode featuring author Cory Doctorow. Doctorow discussed his new book about why and how tech platforms are purposely deteriorating at the expense of their users. If you missed his Connections appearance, you can listen to the full episode here.

Then, KGNU’s Abby O’Brien checked in with Chalkbeat reporter Jason Gonzales about a proposed state designation that would signal that certain campuses are a welcoming place for students of color.
