It's Time to Mount an Information Offensive (6/19/21) ft/ Ed Zitron


Listen Later

Joining SH!TPOST is P.R. guy, writer, and Joker-meme enthusiast Ed Zitron, who wrote a fantastic essay this week that confronts the ways newsrooms have failed to respond to bad-faith internet harassment campaigns against their reporters made in service of right-wing political causes. Major outlets still have no real answer to the ongoing problem and have filled in the void with public statements that often accomplish less than nothing. Ed offers a few solutions of his own.
