Episode description

Mediaite editor Aidan McLaughlin speaks with MSNBC anchor Ali Velshi, out now with a new book "Small Acts of Courage." They discuss the book, the stakes of the 2024 election, what a second Trump term means for journalists, the future of the news industry, and media coverage of Oct. 7 and the war in Gaza.

Mediaite's Press Club has expanded into a show on SiriusXM's POTUS Channel 124. The new show features not just a flagship interview with top figures in the media, but also conversation and debate with reporters and editors about the biggest stories in press and politics. For this week's episode, McLaughlin is joined by Mediaite founding editor Colby Hall about the "cheap fake" mania taking over cable news.

This episode was produced by Brandon Reschke and Kathryn Wilkens.
