Editor Says Ep 2: Beyond the US election, what is at stake is democracy itself
3:33 mins
Synopsis: Every Friday afternoon, senior editors from The Straits Times give their take on the top news of the week, why it matters and what’s next.
It’s a cliffhanger. Down to the wire. Too close to call. The US election has been a nail-biter, with President Donald Trump and Democratic challenger Joe Biden locked in a tight race.
Beyond this contentious election, what is at stake is democracy itself, says The Straits Times editor Warren Fernandez, given how America has been plagued with alternative facts, fake news, misinformation and disinformation the last four years.

Green Pulse Ep 36: Looking under the sea for a nature-based solution
16:44 mins
Synopsis: Every first and third Monday of the month, The Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from biodiversity conservation to climate change in this podcast series.
In this episode, ST’s environment correspondent Audrey Tan and climate change editor David Fogarty host Dr Siti Maryam, a marine ecologist at the environmental consultant company DHI Water & Environment, about an ocean-based solution to tackling climate change: Seagrass.
Seagrass meadows can be found in Singapore waters, and a 2015 study had found that the seagrass meadow at Chek Jawa on offshore Pulau Ubin contained about 138 metric tonnes of carbon per hectare of seagrass -- equivalent to emissions from 69,000 taxi rides between Marina Bay and Changi Airport.
Yet, these habitats face many threats from human activity, including land reclamation and poor water quality. How can these stores of blue carbon be better protected and restored? Tune in to find out.
They discuss the following points:
