"When we took the majority in the Senate earlier this year, the American people entrusted us with a great responsibility: to make their lives better. I am happy to report that we are making great progress towards that goal."
Vox's Sean Illing talks with former Washington Post executive editor Marty Baron about the state of journalism.
