Zeteo: Is There Still a Free Press in the U.S.? Joy Reid, Jim Acosta and Mehdi Discuss

Does mainstream media have a shred of credibility left after capitulating to Donald Trump only a year into his second term? Is there hope for free speech and accountability journalism in today’s corporate media? Why have so many prominent journalists been unable – or unwilling – to call out fascism at home and genocide abroad?

During Zeteo’s “One Year of Trump” event in DC, Mehdi sits down for a live interview with former mainstream pundits Joy Reid (MSNBC) and Jim Acosta (CNN) to break down just how dire the situation has become.

This conversation took place live at the Howard Theater in Washington DC and published last week on zeteo.com.
