The Gist - Unleash The Kraken!

Chris Stirewalt is the politics editor at NewsNation, a former Fox news analyst and host, and the author of Broken News: Why The Media Rage Machine Divides America and How to Fight Back. He joins us to talk about his time at Fox, and how the “fair and balanced” slogan they tote is less benign that it seems. Also on the show, an exploration of the new House rules produced during the Kevin McCarthy vote-wrangling last week. And a very transmissible Omicron variant is among us. It’s dangerous and, most importantly, it has a scary name “The Kraken.”

Produced by Joel Patterson and Corey Wara

Lost Debate - Ep 105 | TikTok Ban, Porn & Public Health, Noncompete Clauses

Ravi and Rikki kick things off with Congress’ new TikTok ban, over escalating fears that the app amounts to a “Trojan Horse” for pro-China propaganda. We look at how the app is impacting Americans before switching gears to one of the few forms of content with an even wider reach: pornography. We don’t like to talk about it – or write about it – but how is it affecting our health? Finally, the FTC wants to ban noncompete agreements in the name of workers’ rights. We discuss whether they should, and whether they can.

Consider This from NPR - Attack On Brazil’s Capitol Is Part of Transnational Extremist Movement

The attack on Brazil's congress and presidential palace Sunday was reminiscent of the attack on the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Both are part of a broader transnational extremist movement.

We talk about that with Guilherme Casarões of the Getulio Vargas Foundation in Sao Paulo, and with NPR correspondents Shannon Bond and Sergio Olmos.

In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
