Andrew and Jerry Throw The Flag!
from Andrew and Jerry Save The World! Hosted by Andrew Langer and Jerrry Rogers
Spiking and slow-walking aren't sports violations... they're how the media manipulates narratives, and Andrew and Jerry "throw the flag" on them. They're joined by Tim Graham, Executive Editor of NewsBusters, a project of the Media Research Center. They talk about the media's coverage of President Biden looking for a dead congresswoman in a White House crowd, how Karine Jean-Pierre is doing at her job (especially as compared to Jen Psaki), but also specifically how media narratives get molded. They talk about the media's disparate treatment of republicans versus democrats, liberals versus conservatives, and how different presidents got portrayed in the Press. How have things gotten worse? Are reporters biased? Lazy? Both? And what kinds of biases are there? How are the many ways that narratives can get molded? Oh, and after Tim leaves, Andrew and Jerry talk TV... Andrew has new show recommendations, Jerry thinks the Star Wars universe has jumped the Shark, and Andrew has decided he hates HBO's House of the Dragon.
