Ep 897 | Driftglass for Pope and David Brooks Said What?!

from The Professional Left Podcast with Driftglass and Blue Gal · host Driftglass and Blue Gal

In this episode of The Professional Left Podcast, we return from our break to tackle the media's misuse of political vocabulary and how a certain pundit twists language to avoid placing blame where it belongs. We break down a prominent columnist's appearance on PBS that perfectly illustrates this problem, while examining how his myth of the "Sensible Center" continues to poison our discourse. Our news roundup covers troubling developments from the Trump administration alongside a few rays of hope from recent local elections and court decisions.  Join us for vocabulary lessons, media criticism, and proof that in America's partisan divide, one side is clearly the problem.Stay in Touch! Email: [email protected]: proleftpod.comSupport via Patreon: patreon.com/proleftpodMail: The Professional Left, PO Box 9133, Springfield, Illinois, 62791Not safe for work.  Support the show
