Arizona Secretary of State Adrian Fontes discusses election security on the debut of The Briefing, a weekly broadcast-style news show produced by The Arizona Republic and azcentral.com.

The show, hosted by Republic reporter Rafael Carranza, explores news and issues through interviews with other reporters and newsmakers in a fast-paced, easy-to-digest format.

The Briefing publishes to azcentral.com and YouTube, where The Republic’s audience has grown to nearly 130,000 followers.

Also on the first show: A visit to Runbeck Election Services, which prints ballots in Phoenix, and a discussion of the year ahead with some of The Republic’s reporters who will cover elections extensively.
