Summary

Ravi and Rikki start with a rundown of Moore v. Harper, the major Supreme Court case poised to shift election laws. Then the hosts turn to the meteoric rise and precipitous fall of a one-time titan of the internet: BuzzFeed.

Though BuzzFeed is on the way out, there has been a BuzzFeed vacation of the internet.

0:06.0

There are people who've learned from this gaming of the algorithms and hijacking of people's attention,

0:11.0

mixing seemingly stupid content with super substantive stuff that fits their agenda.

I think a lot of people learned from this and mimicked it.

Welcome to The Lost Debate, a show for politically eclectics. I'm Robbie Gupta.

0:32.9

additional kind of option is taken away, I wouldn't be surprised if Walker takes a good portion of

1:35.8

them because it is very, very close right now. And it's really just a matter of how those voters

1:40.7

shake out unless something dramatic happens in terms of the candidates between

1:44.7

now and then. Right. I have actually a bet we can do on this. So I think if, if I'm right
