In Ep 3 of The News: How about that long-running claim of a liberal/left news media? True story or successful propaganda campaign? Why does it matter? We take a fresh look, with receipts and experts like @PeterBeinart.

The voices and stories and analyses covered in these episodes couldn't be timelier. I urge folks to check them out!

After 18 months of intense work, we dropped eps 1 and 2 of our new season, The News. We think this project is making some real interventions, as @catchatweetdown
likes to say(!), into the scattered and confused debates about "the media." Check it!

Thrilled that our upcoming season, The News, is an Official Selection at the Tribeca Festival! Launching May 27, Season 8 brings back the great @catchatweetdown
as co-host. What's *really* wrong with the news media? Is it what we think it is?

It’s time for the white community to stop playing the victim & have an uncomfortable conversation about their violent culture, parental responsibility & the families raising the thugs causing all the white-on-white violence in Republican-controlled cities.

Did I do it right?
