In this News Brief, we detail how US media reinforces every faulty premise of Israel's attack and how top Dems either ignore Trump and Israel's massive escalation or openly support it, showing once again the scope of debate ranges all the way from A to B. soundcloud.com/citationsneede…
In this Patron News Brief, we breakdown Jake Tapper's most Jake Tapper story yet: a belated, safe account of the WH covering up Biden's mental decline and what "speaking truth to power" means when Tapper has parroted the govt line on Gaza for 20 months. patreon.com/posts/news-bri…
I liked this @CitationsPod episode, taking down the anti-science posturing by certain politicians, and their bad-faith attacks on federally funded research. Science journalists have covered these issues well, but we’re in the minority. m.soundcloud.com/citationsneede…
It was great to chat with @UCSUSA's @BrendaEkwurzel for this one. This performative schtick of smugly scoffing at scientific research drives me nuts. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/epi…
In Ep 221, "Anti-Science Mugging on the Right and the Ascent of American Anti-Intellectualism" we detail demagogues' favorite faux populist schtick of taking scientific studies out of context and mocking them, often with help from mainstream media. soundcloud.com/citationsneede…
