Listen Later


It’s been a busy summer in DC. During the flurry of controversial Supreme Court rulings this past week, the congressional hearings looking into the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol have continued apace, with some major damning evidence revealed during Cassidy Hutchinson’s testimony on Tuesday, June 28.
Today, Friday host Esty Dinur takes a close look at what we’ve learned from the hearings so far and how the media has been covering them with Chris Walker and Jon Allsop.
Chris Walker is a news writer at Truthout based out of Madison, Wisconsin.
Jon Allsop is a freelance journalist whose work has appeared in the New York Review of Books, Foreign Policy, and The Nation, among other outlets. He writes the Columbia Journalism Review‘s newsletter The Media Today.
