Topics
Ben Smith 和 Nayeema Raza：本期节目讨论了亨特·拜登的丑闻，以及媒体对加沙和苏丹危机的报道，并探讨了生牛奶消费的政治化。他们分析了2020年大选前围绕亨特·拜登笔记本电脑的各种阴谋论，以及媒体在报道中的失误。他们还采访了美国驻联合国大使Linda Thomas-Greenfield，讨论了她对媒体忽视苏丹危机的批评。最后，他们与Max Tani讨论了一些媒体报道中被忽视的故事。 Linda Thomas-Greenfield：她批评媒体对苏丹危机的关注不足，认为媒体应该引导公众关注，而不是仅仅反映公众兴趣。她认为，媒体对加沙的关注度高于苏丹，并非由于反犹太主义，而是因为加沙冲突是国际冲突，并且与美国的利益密切相关。她还谈到了在战争信息环境中，快速传播的未经证实的信息对决策者和公众都构成了挑战，媒体需要快速调查并提供不同的信息。 Max Tani：他讨论了保守派组织Turning Points USA推广饮用未经巴氏消毒的生牛奶的现象，这反映了对政府机构的不信任和对传统生活方式的怀旧。他还讨论了特朗普的私人飞机状况不佳，这反映了对特朗普财富和商业能力的质疑。
