Podcast: Uncertain Things
Episode: The Media's Psychotic Break (w/ Matt Taibbi)
Description: Matt Taibbi thrives on the absurd. He used to revel in journalism's culture: caustic, independent, collaborative, and adversarial to those in power. Now, the former Rolling Stone writer and author of Hate Inc. sees little to love in the toxic, "credentialist" media world. We discuss Matt's transition to Substack (the future!), the psychotic break Trump inspired in "mainstream" media, and the future of our broken industry.Find us on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Podcast Addict, and Stitcher.
