Questioning the experts and a conspiracy linking 5G and coronavirus

4/10/2020

Coronavirus has divided the right-wing media bubble

3/1/2020
There were two big topics of conversation in the right-wing media bubble this week, Bernie Sanders and Coronavirus. As Sanders won in Nevada and took a commanding lead in the race to win the Democratic Party's nomination, the right-wing media took a look at his record and started their attacks on the candidate. At the same time, we saw a divide in the normally-unified right-wing media as key personalities started attacking each other over the coronavirus. Some, Rush Limbaugh and Sean Hannity amongst them, called for calm while others, including Michael Savage and Alex Jones, were full of panic. We cover it all, as well as some other clips that caught our ear this week.

We're Back for 2020

2/7/2020
Its 2020, a presidential election year and the world is more polarised than ever. The perfect time for a podcast to take you into the world of right wing shock jocks, news and opinion. These are voices that reach millions, set the agenda for the news, influence people's perspectives and perhaps most importantly, have the ear of the President. Parts of it will be entertaining, parts outrageous but most of all I hope it is illuminating. I hope it gives some insight into a campaign that is bound to get heated as we get closer to November. So make sure you subscribe today and look out for our episode every week. Join us as we journey deep into the bubble. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
