About this episode
The media didn’t just get this story wrong, they got caught laundering credibility. From a widely quoted “doctor” later linked to a militant hierarchy, to the viral casualty-numbers firestorm and how selective framing turns statistics into propaganda, the panel walks you through how to spot the tricks in real time...who benefits, what gets omitted, and why “we can’t independently verify” only seems to apply when it’s convenient. Then the conversation swings into Trump’s “phase two” talk and the fantasy that Hamas will disarm, before closing with a cathartic “Scumbag of the Week / Hero of the Week” gauntlet that turns outrage into a practical playbook: how to counter narrative warfare without constantly playing defense.
