Description
TJ Walker analyzes five headline stories: the U.S. strikes ISIS targets in Nigeria and the selective framing around victims; the Brown University shooting and the role powerful figures play in accelerating misinformation; a TikTok livestream driving incident that allegedly killed a pedestrian and the broader distracted-driving crisis; official government Christmas messaging and church–state lines; and the Kennedy Center’s canceled Christmas Eve jazz tradition after the “Trump-Kennedy” naming backlash.
