Alec Karakasanas

Alec Karakasanas, the director of Equal Justice Under the Law and author of "Copaganda," dives deep into the concept of pro-police propaganda. He discusses how media sensationalism has skewed public perception of crime, leading to a withdrawal of support for police reform. By reflecting on the protests post-George Floyd's death, he sheds light on the disconnect between policing ideals and reality. Karakasanas also critiques how coverage priorities obscure systemic issues, urging a reevaluation of narratives surrounding crime and safety.
