In this episode of The Spectacle Podcast, hosts Melissa Mackenzie and Scott McKay discuss the leak and the Left’s attempt to paint the private chat in a negative light. Scott analogizes the ‘scandal’ to Watergate and how major media outlets hyper focus on insignificant scandals rather than more significant issues. Tune in to hear their discussion!
