  • Ruth Marcus is an out of touch racist

    Why on earth would you platform the out of touch, anti Muslim racism of Ruth Marcus? Her views on Mamdani are precisely why the Democratic Party is on life support and hated by its own base.

  • TBD Tech and Gun Manufacturing

    Thought provoking discussion on marketing of guns. I hope the results of this lawsuit is that marketing guns to youth becomes illegal like tobacco and other harms.

  • David Plotz thinks he is objective

    But he is really a knee jerk apologist for liberalism. His constant exhortations about how fair minded he is while he takes swipes at progressives seems self hating and unnecessary. Exhausting to listen to and it is annoying the number of assumptions he makes about the listeners and how little he thinks of us. Emily Bazelon is the saving grace. John Dickerson tends to live in the same bubble as David.

  • Very Disappointing Episode

    The episode about Trump voters was awful. The guest spent the entire time insulting liberals to prove that liberals shouldn’t think Trumpsters are delusional racists. Frank Buckley offered zero insight into how Trump MAGA are anything other than delusional racists.

Disney's leadership responded to regulatory pressure by standing firm and pursuing legal avenues, indicating a shift from early capitulation to active defense of First Amendment rights.
What Next: TBD | Tech, power, and the future - Trump's Disney Shakedown
Q: Is this Disney finding a spine or can Disney read a poll?
Disney has found its spine and is pushing back against regulatory pressure, including taking its case toward court if the FCC pursues adverse action; capitulation does not guarantee protection.
ICYMI - The Secret Marketing Tactic Killing The Internet
Q: What does this mean for journalism and trust in online content?
Journalists are challenged to discern real trends from manufactured signals, as platforms benefit from engagement and traditional verification tools struggle against coordinated manipulation, making media scrutiny more essential than ever.
ICYMI - The Secret Marketing Tactic Killing The Internet
Q: So what is clipping?
Clipping is the practice of taking video content, cutting it into short clips, and distributing those clips across platforms in large volumes to create perceived momentum and engagement, often with fake, inauthentic accounts that drive views and engagement.
What Next - No Panic! at the DNC
Q: What signals are you seeing that indicate the coalition is evolving rather than collapsing?
There are signs of fragmentation among Trump loyalists, but also a coalescing base around core figures; the key is whether Democratic candidates can appropriately tailor messages to diverse districts while maintaining a credible, overarching narrative.
