Journalistic Responsibility in Combating Extremism

Send us a message! Really!

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast: Democrats keep winning, Republicans keep losing, and we predict whether these two trends will continue! Congress finally found the votes to impeach the Secretary of Homeland Security, even though the Senate wants nothing to do with this ridiculousness. And can four GOP state lawmakers running for higher office break the "Republican Caucus Curse" and get elected to Congress? 

But first, Kyle Clark of 9News, Colorado’s most popular evening news anchor, joins us once more to talk about what the hell is going on in Lakewood, if local and national journalists are failing to meet the moment on political extremism, and what the balance is between fighting bigotry and platforming it.
