Mississippi Today recently published “The Backchannel” investigation, which used never-before-published text messages to explore former Gov. Phil Bryant’s role in the state’s welfare scandal. Before the series published, Bryant sat down with Mississippi Today for a three-hour interview. Journalists Anna Wolfe and Adam Ganucheau discuss how the interview came about, what it was like inside Bryant’s office, and how it’s been perceived since the series published.
