'BradCast' 8/27/2025 (Encore: Timothy Karr of Free Press on corporate media capitulation)

08-27-2025 (53.23 MB)

Encore:  original airdate 8-6-2026. On today's 'BradCast': The nation's founders saw the free press as a key bulwark against monarchs and tyrants, protecting it in the Constitution. But 250 years later, authoritarian Donald Trump and Republicans have launched an unprecedented assault on the freedom of the press. Corporate media companies have largely rolled over and capitulated to Trump's bogus attacks. TIMOTHY KARR of Free Press explains his new report, 'A More Perfect Media: Saving America’s Fourth Estate from Billionaires, Broligarchy and Trump,' on the chilling state of our formerly free press, their new Media Capitulation Index, solutions to restoring press freedom, and much more. Anti-vaccine activist and HHS Sec. Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announced he is ending federal funding and development of new, groundbreaking mRNA vaccines. Plus: state and local election results this week offer some hopeful news for democracy.
