Meta announced today that it will end its fact-checking program as part of the company’s repositioning ahead of the upcoming Trump presidency. Ravi takes a closer look at the decision, what it suggests about Big Tech’s approach to the shifting political landscape, and the broader civic implications of Trump’s presidency.
Vanity Fair’s Katherine Eban then joins Ravi to discuss the rise of the MAHA (Make America Healthy Again) movement and its potential impact on public health policy. They first explore the movement’s key priorities, including controversial measures like promoting raw milk and limiting the use of preservatives. Katherine and Ravi then examine how MAHA’s diverse coalition, spanning from left-wing organic food advocates to far-right vaccine skeptics, reflects a growing distrust of health institutions. Finally, they dive into RFK Jr.’s potential appointment as Health Secretary, his history of vaccine skepticism, and how his confirmation could reshape public health narratives.
