Scott was joined by Matt Taibbi this week on Antiwar Radio. They discuss some of Taibbi’s recent reporting on the government-NGO-corporate media joint effort to flag and suppress certain news and opinions that they deem to be disinformation. They take a step back and look at the broader context behind this story and discuss some evidence that the fight against this new digital censorship regime can work.
Discussed on the show:
- “People Can Win” (Racket News)
- Insane Clown President by Matt Taibbi
