We're back with another edition of the Federalist Radio Hour.

I'm Emily Gisinski, Culture Editor here at the Federalist.

As always, you can email the show at radio at the Federalist.com, follow us on Twitter

at FDRLST, make sure to subscribe wherever you download your podcasts as well.

Today I'm joined by Alex Marlow, Alex is the Editor in Chief of Brightbart.

He's actually been the Editor in Chief of Brightbart since 27 years old.

He's also the host of Brightbart News Daily and the author of this wonderful book.

It's called Breaking the News and the subtitle there is exposing the establishment

media's hidden deals and secret corruption.

Alex, thank you so much for joining us.

Emily, it's really a pleasure. I know you and I go way back, but it's my first time doing the show

and I'm excited about it. I have checked it out a number of times and I like it and I like it.

The Federalist is all about it.

Well, the feeling is totally mutual and Alex and I are together on the National Journalism

Center's board of governors and he's really helpful to young journalists, which is great because

he has a really helpful nuanced perspective on journalism and it comes with a lot of experience.

So let's start there, Alex, since this is your first time on Federalist Radio Hour,

you had a really interesting story. You were mentored very closely by Andrew Brightbart,

which is why you've been the EIC over there for so long.

How did you get involved in Brightbart and what were your experiences like sort of in the early days

of conservative media as the internet was democratizing? It was like a circus. Tell us about it.

Thank you and it was one of these things that came about by me doing something I don't love to do,
