What’s it like to cover the news in New Hampshire, and who are the people doing it? ”The Granite Beat,” a podcast by the Granite State News Collaborative, seeks to answer these questions, and is available via all of the usual streaming services. In each episode, journalists and co-hosts Adam Drapcho and Julie Hirshan Hart interview one of the many people who dedicate themselves to providing news coverage of this small but interesting state. Courts and cops reporters, columnists, health journalists, politico watchers, each one with a different view of New Hampshire, their own Granite Beat. The Granite Beat will highlight stories that might otherwise go unseen outside of an outlet’s distribution, as well as to hear how those stories were investigated in the first place. In doing so, the co-hosts hope to underscore the trust Granite Staters have in their local journalists and the work they produce.
