FishbowlNY Takes a Look at Time’s ‘Assignment Detroit’

Last month Time Inc. launched an initiative called “Assignment Detroit,” in which Time journalists committed to “living in and reporting from the city of Detroit” for one year.

We’re only a month in, but Amanda Ernst, editor of our sister blog FishbowlNY, decided to check in via Skype to see how things are going. Earlier this week she chatted with Time magazine correspondent Steven Gray, who lives in the Motor City house the news magazine is using as its Detroit bureau.

Here’s one segment of their Skype interview below. You can find more at FishbowlNY.
