Description

In this episode of the ⁠⁠Viral Cure: Making sense of internet discourse ⁠⁠series, ⁠⁠⁠Stephen joins journalist Ross Barkan, who responds to both national and local political issues with a balanced, nuanced take. We discuss:

• how Ross attempts to respond intelligently, rather than to react emotionally, to his political opponents
• tactics for speaking and writing candidly about both the strengths and weaknesses of one's own political positions
• the value of becoming informed on and engaged in local political initiatives
