The Gist - Bernie Goetz The Fiasco Treatment

Leon Neyfakh, host of Fiasco: Vigilante, is here to talk about the truth of Bernard Goetz, the once-hailed, now hazily recalled subway gunman. Also at issue: How reasonable was fear 35 years ago, 5 years ago, and today. Plus, Mike broke up a public dispute just as it was tipping into fist fight between strangers on the streets of New York, and he reflects on the reactions he got to this act.

Consider This from NPR - NPR Investigation Reveals Flaws In U.S. Claims About Baghdadi Raid Casualties

Editor's note: This episode contains graphic descriptions of violence.

The U.S. military has consistently maintained that its troops didn't harm civilians during the 2019 raid on the Syrian hideout of ISIS founder Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, which lead to Baghdadi blowing himself up.

It stuck to that version of events even after NPR reported on claims from Syrians that civilians were killed and maimed by U.S. helicopter fire during the raid. The Pentagon claimed the men were enemy combatants.

NPR sued the Pentagon under the Freedom of Information Act to release documentation of the airstrikes, and obtained a redacted copy of the Defense Department's confidential 2020 report on the incident.

NPR's Daniel Estrin digs into the document, and finds that it reveals flaws in the Pentagon's conclusion.

His investigation, in English and Arabic, includes declassified Pentagon documents, photos, maps and videos.

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