Summary

Host Reed Galen is joined by Author and Journalist Brian Stelter to discuss the political media landscape, why the right-wing media ecosystem is so big and how it’s so effective in its messaging, and what really goes on behind the scenes at Fox News…especially during Donald Trump’s “Big Lie”. Plus, how does the media combat the flattening effect of cable news as a medium? Be sure to pick up Network of Lies: The Epic Saga of Fox News, Donald Trump, and the Battle for American Democracy, available wherever fine books are sold and hear more from Brian Stelter on Vanity Fair’s Inside the Hive.
