News & Politics
Two millennials get into the shit show that was TV coverage of the 2016 United States presidential election. Eric Mack and Brett Madsen discuss the root causes behind the end product, including the role of money in the news business and how strongly it ultimately shapes our thinking. They also discuss how easily Donald Trump was able to manipulate cable news into creating a feedback loop based on the topic of his choosing, and how he was able to ultimately drive the conversation.
