This week, Joshua Holland and Elizabeth Preza are thrilled to launched the very first episode of We've Got Issues. Who knows--it may become a collector's item!
First up, we talk about the fluid state of the early days of the Democratic presidential primaries with blogger and Salon columnist Heather "Digby" Parton.
And then we catch up with Greg Sargent to talk about the political press's challenges--and failures--covering an erratic, lawless president who defies all of the conventions to which reporters and editors have become accustomed over the years. Greg writes The Washington Post's Plum Line Blog and is the author of An Uncivil War: Taking Back Our Democracy in an Age of Trumpian Disinformation and Thunderdome Politics.
