How to listen to podcasts: everything you need to know
This week, to celebrate the Guardian’s 200th birthday, David Smith takes Jonathan Freedland on a historical journey through the paper’s centuries of US coverage, from its constant criticism of Abraham Lincoln, to its show of force against the Iraq war, which went against most in the US media at the time.
They discuss the fascinating transition from being a sort of outsider looking in, to being a go-to guide for millions of Americans.
