THIS IS REVOLUTION＞podcast Ep. 279: Detoxing the From the Right Wing Brainwash w/ Jen Senko

Right wing media has had a stranglehold on terrestrial radio and cable news for decades. What led the right to dominate the airwaves and brainwash a generation? About Jen Senko Jen Senko, a documentary filmmaker, author, and media-activist based in New York City, is known for her award-winning documentaries; Road Map Warrior Women (2000), The Vanishing City (2010), and The Brainwashing of My Dad (2016) narrated by Matthew Modine. In 2021, The Brainwashing of My Dad received the prestigious People's Voice Award in Public Service & Activism from The Webby Awards. Senko's adaptation of her film into a book of the same name (published on October 5, 2021) tracks the pernicious and addictive rise of right-wing media and how this media served as a tool for libertarian billionaires to get people to vote against their own interests and gain one-party rule. Jen's work focuses on socio political themes with the intent of inspiring activism and fomenting change.   You can find her movie here: https://vimeo.com/ondemand/thebrainwashingofmydad...   About TIR Thank you, guys, again for taking the time to check this out.
