Heartland’s Tim Benson is joined by Batya Ungar-Sargon, deputy opinion editor at Newsweek, to discuss Bad News: How Woke Media Is Undermining Democracy. They talk about the history of American journalism since the mid-19th Century, the shift in journalism from blue-collar trade to elite profession, how the woke moral panic took over newsrooms and how that panic helps to keep liberal elites in their positions of power.
