Fast Politics with Molly Jong-Fast

CHAPTER

Disillusionment and Media Failures

This chapter examines the disillusionment experienced by individuals towards the mainstream media and the Democratic Party, particularly in light of recent historical events like the January 6th insurrection. It highlights the media's normalization of these events and the consequent impact on public trust and perception, while also critiquing the current state of journalism under billionaire ownership. The discussion expands to include the political implications of potential nominees in a future administration and the Democrats’ struggles to effectively challenge dangerous ideologies within the Republican Party.
