The media spotlight was shining on north central Florida during the last week at white nationalist Richard Spencer spoke at the University of Florida. Domestic news outlets, both local and national, covered the story. WUFT was fortunate enough to host an international journalist as the story unfolded.

Laura Koppenhöfer is a producer and reporter for German public media. She has extensive experience in radio and works primarily in the southwest region of the country.  She shared her opinion about Spencer as well as American journalism, media outlets, and organizational structure.
