Description

Part 1:
We talk with Nitish Pahwa, staff writer, business and technology, at Slate.com.
We discuss how Trump is gaining control over more US media, by pressuring the few companies who control it. In 1983, 50 companies were in the media business. Today, in 2025, 6 companies control 90% of the media. We now see preemptive compliance to the administration, and self-censoring broadcasters.
Part 2:
We talk with Dr. Jamie Rowen, Assoc. Prof. of Legal Studies, UMass=Amherst.
We discuss the Charlie Kirk funeral services, and his near-beatification by the administration.
We also discuss the increasing gun violence among young American men.
