She discusses the significance of telling stories from rural America to bridge the urban-rural divide and highlights her experiences working on impactful stories like the Mod family’s case in South Dakota and a controversial dam removal in Northern California. Keely also talks about her work with Brooke Rollins' office to help independent producers and describes the challenges and nuances of true journalism, including engaging with opposing viewpoints and navigating safety concerns during fieldwork.
