- Politics
A new book edited by a trio of media scholars tracks the spread of censorship across countries and across the media spectrum. All three co-editors join Mickey to explain their disturbing findings. Then, Mickey and co-host Eleanor Goldfield discuss the widely published story of supposed mass rape by Hamas fighters on October 7, and the New York Times’ refusal, to date, to acknowledge that its story has been debunked. Eleanor also speaks about her recent article on her own experience of lacking housing and how corporate media’s choice of language facilitates discrimination against unsheltered people as an “other.”
GUESTS:
Robin Andersen is Professor Emerita of Communications at Fordham University. Steve Macek teaches at North Central College in suburban Chicago. Nolan Higdon is a lecturer in Education at the University of California Santa Cruz campus. They are the co-editors of Censorship, Digital Media, and the Global Crackdown on Freedom of Expression.
