Show Notes
Since Trump’s landslide victory, we have seen that many of the once respected corporate media being revealed of its true colours, i.e., “having its unearned influence through a phony front of respectability and professionalism” as described by John Nolte. Paul Logan’s troll on BBC by sending a lookalike for an interview which BBC has been chasing months for would be the beginning of a reversal of how the media has been treating its opponents with belligerent contempt.
MSNBC is seen as a clown show today. Washington Post is fake news. And the list goes on, which is why today we invited two special guests to give their reaction from Gen Z’s perspective and local entertainment scene’s perspective to the nomination of Tom Homan as the border czar in Trump’s administration and Whoopi Goldberg’s citing of Pew Research where 40% of young Americans get their news from social media influencers.
