This week, Eddie and Steph welcome Parker Molloy, a writer covering media, politics, and the world around us on her Substack, The Present Age (10:20). Parker begins by explaining her journey to becoming an independent journalist and how watching hours upon hours of Fox News helped shape her thinking. Next, she explains why it feels like there’s too much news, the tactic of “Flooding the Zone,” and how the hollowing out of the Washington Post, CBS, and other institutions are making it worse (25:55). Parker then makes the direct connection between media narratives on the trans community, and the ability of activist legislators to enact real harms against the trans community (40:44). Then we delve into Trans Athletes In Sports and how nearly everything about that conversation has been misguided (50:40).
