Remember when Netflix imploded over Dave Chappelle's comedy skits? Or when Hillary Clinton approved the peddling of a false report that led to the Trump-Russia collusion conspiracy theory? What about that National School Board Association's letter asking the Justice Department to sic federal investigators on parents at school board meetings? In today's episode, Mary Katharine and Vic give an update of some of this year's top stories.

The Department of Homeland Security paused its misinformation board after videos surface of Nina Jankowicz, the woman they tapped to lead the group, discussing topics she believed were misinformation—like the Hunter Biden laptop story. Netflix tells woke employees to kick rocks if they can't work on content with which they disagree, the New York Times gives us a great "So It Can Be Told" segment, and Mary Katharine gives a shoutout to a heroic dog.

You know, how teachers unions kept schools closed for more than a year? Or how some on the left cast aside free speech in the face of a tragedy? Mary Katharine and Vic know it's all in good faith....
