2014 will likely be remembered as a tumultuous year in both culture and politics. But at least there is one moment in the early fall that will be noted for changing the landscape of media for good. That's when Sarah Koenig's Serialdebuted, a nonfiction podcast that followed a journalist's investigation into a 15 year-old murder case to potentially exonerate a man sitting in prison. More
