"Seattle is Dying"

The recent documentary, "Seattle is Dying" has created a great conversation about the homeless and addiction problems in Seattle.  This is the third video in a trilogy. The first one "There But For the Grace of God" explored homelessness from the inside out in 2016.  The second was called, "Demon at the Door" and was about the hellish existence of heroin addiction.

"Seattle is Dying"  (View HERE)  is about everyone else.  It's about citizens who don't feel safe taking their families into downtown Seattle. It's about parents who won't take their children into the public parks they pay for. It's about filth and degradation all around us. And theft and crime. It's about people who don't feel protected anymore, who don't feel like their voices are being heard.

This program is not about demonizing those who are struggling with addiction and homelessness and mental illness.  Instead, it asks the questions, "Why aren't we doing more? Why don't we have the courage to intervene in lives that are, in the face of a grave sickness, reeling out of control?"

Matt Markovich was the Executive Producer of this documentary and is a  man who wears many hats. He began reporting for KOMO 4 News in 1994, but he also reports and produces for several nationally syndicated programs and networks including The Discovery Channel, Travel Channel, Learning Channel, PBS, Lifetime and ABC.
