A months-long investigation by The California Newsroom into how Cal Fire is spending its historically large budget found that the department could be neglecting key responsibilities like forest management ahead of another potentially catastrophic fire season. To learn more, Valley Edition Host Kathleen Schock spoke to the journalists behind the investigation, CapRadio’s Scott Rodd and KQED’s Danielle Venton.

Kathleen Schock is the host of Valley Edition. In the show, Kathleen and the Valley Public Radio news team explore issues that matter to the residents of Central California through engaging conversations and in-depth reporting.
