New York Times depiction of affordable housing

New York Times (6/24/22 ([link removed]) )

This week on CounterSpin: As Eric Horowitz noted ([link removed]) at FAIR.org, a lot of elite media coverage of housing problems has focused on the idea that landlords of supposedly modest means are being squeezed; or that people living without homes pose a threat to the lives and property of homeowners, as well as to the careers of politicians who dare to defend them—besides, you know, dragging down the neighborhood aesthetics.

New views are needed, not only about the impacts of the affordable housing crisis, but also about its causes. It's not just capitalism run amok, because that doesn't happen without government involvement.

We'll talk with longtime affordable housing advocate Gene Slater, founder and chair at CSG Advisors ([link removed]) .
