Untethered From Reality: ‘BradCast’ 5/20/2015

Share article:

We’ve been talking about reality here a lot lately, and the difficulty a huge portion of our population has with it.

On today’s BradCast: Our nation’s untethering from reality, as it affects accountability for Iraq War war crimes and torture, the 2016 race, climate change and much more. We can’t fix our problems until we can agree on the facts, but Governors Chris Christie and Scott Walker remind us once again that we are nowhere near such agreement. (Even as we must take a side trip through the Bush Family’s relationship with Nazi Germany to help understand it all.)

Journalist-turned-media-activist and documentarian Sue Wilson from Media Action Center joins us to discuss the FCC ruling that upends the First Amendment and Walker and his supporter’s efforts to make things even worse in a Wisconsin criminal investigation into his 2012 recall election that may have an enormous impact on the entire nation in 2016.

Plus: Minimum wage boosted to $15/hour here in Los Angeles; Another huge oil spill in Santa Barbara; and much more on today’s BradCast
