How does a former auto mechanic become one of the fastest-rising independent investigative journalists in America?
On this episode of The Karol Markowicz Show, Karol sits down with Walter Curt to discuss his unconventional path into journalism, his rapid rise during COVID, and the shocking moment that changed everything—being swatted alongside multiple journalists.
Walter dives deep into his investigative work uncovering alleged government fraud, financial crime, and activist networks—explaining why “following the money” may reveal far more than the headlines suggest. He also shares insights into his biggest stories, including a controversial school-related scandal, and what it takes to report on sensitive topics in today’s political climate.
Plus, a candid conversation on the personal cost of independent journalism—from threats and family strain to finding purpose and fighting for the next generation.
