DAVID TERESHCHUK was first commissioned to write The Media Beat in 2004 by Tribune Newspapers.
It ran as a weekly feature in Tribune's New York City daily, 'AM New York’ until he took the column online in 2006.
A radio version of The Media Beat appears every week on the NPR Connecticut station WHDD. The Media Beat PODCASTS are available at Apple Podcasts, and at WHDD's 'On Demand’ page, as well as all major podcasting providers.
From 2012 onward, Tereshchuk's frequent reports for television on ethical issues have been broadcast on PBS programs Religion and Ethics Newsweekly and PBS Newshour.
