UnPresidented: Creating change that empowers the Resistance

Ep 79: Laura Ingraham boycott, Sinclair bias, and monopoly media (2 Apr 18)


Listen Later

In today's episode, Cliff and I discuss the impact of monopoly media on America, from Sinclair Broadcast Group forcing its local anchors to read a partisan pro-Trump script about "fake news," to the wildly-successful boycott of Fox News' Laura Ingraham and the danger that Fox poses as a propaganda organ of one political party. We also discuss Trump's tragic photo shoot at the White House Easter Egg hunt, in which Melania and the Easter Bunny appear to be unwilling hostages, the latest election news (still great for Democrats), and the NRA's weird new ad campaign about lemons and crying.
