Lean Out with Tara Henley

The Politics of the Working Class


Listen Later

It’s an election year in the United States. And so far, the media’s focus has not been on working people and what policies they want to see from their leadership. But my guest on today’s program has travelled across America interviewing working class voters — and she shares her insights on what the media is missing. 

Batya Ungar-Sargon is the opinion editor of Newsweek. Her latest book is Second Class: How the Elites Betrayed America’s Working Men and Women. The audiobook is out this month. 

Batya Ungar-Sargon returns to the show, in an episode recorded in April. Transcript to come for paid subscribers.
