The Rotunda with Trimmel Gomes

The Rotunda Podcast, hosted by Trimmel Gomes, is back from hiatus with a new episode featuring the Miami Herald’s senior Tallahassee reporter, Mary Ellen Klas, who responds to Florida Power & Light’s unusual public attack against her coverage. The nation’s largest power company launched a webpage accusing Klas of being “a reporter with a historically anti-utility bias.” Klas tells Gomes the Herald’s executive editor, Monica Richardson, stands in support of her coverage and has said: “a hit dog will holler.”
Also, on the program, Republican state Representative Alex Andrade rejects the suggestion that the 2022 Legislative will be a battle of “culture war” issues and highlights some of the top issues that will dominate.
The Rotunda Podcast will drop new episodes during the 2022 Legislative Session on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
