Back to EpisodesIsaac Saul on Media Bias, Ideological Diversity, and How Tangle Can Help
Description
Mike & Trey talk with Isaac Saul, a political reporter who shares our belief that information bubbles are a big problem. Instead of just bemoaning this and encouraging people to try and somehow break out of their partisan bubbles, Isaac decided to do something about it – he founded Tangle. If you're a fan of The Politics Guys, you'll really appreciate Isaac's work.
Topics we cover include:
- media’s treatment of Obama vs Trump
- political opinion that masquerades as “news analysis”
- the challenge of getting real political diversity
- why “When is the last time you changed your mind?” is such an important question
- what Tangle is, how Isaac and his team put it together, and what they cover
- the economic model of news and the future of political media
