Franklin Foer is a writer at the Atlantic, formerly editor at The New Republic, and author of the new book, “World Without Mind: The Existential Threat of Big Tech.” Foer and Domenech discuss big tech monopolies, what happens when Silicon Valley meets journalism, and the new world of misinformation.

They’re dominating the public square.”
