NPR host Steve Inskeep came to Kansas City this week to promote the paperback version of his book "Differ We Must: How Lincoln Succeeded in a Divided America."
As the Trump administration continues to be a transformative force in American politics, Inskeep says his priority is to produce fact-based journalism.
"I am trying to do, let's call it, 'old school' journalism. And, if I can manage, I hope that we're doing it better than people have sometimes done it. We want to get in there and figure out what the story is, we want to figure out what the facts are," Inskeep told KCUR's Up To Date.
"We also want to respect some of the complexities of a big, complicated, diverse, very remarkable country and world in that no story is simple. No story has only one side. There's a limitless number of facts."
