"Pop Up Pundits: Who Backs them? What are their Agendas? w/ Professor Darrell Hamamoto"

Former Professor of media and culture, Professor Darrell Hamamoto, joins the program to discuss the new alt media landscape. He calls the heavily supported personalities "Pop up Pundits"; essentially a mainstream takeover of the independent landscape funded by not so independent sources. The point of this discussion is to learn to identify propaganda disguised as independent news and analysis.
