War, Corruption, and Media Manipulation | Jake Hanrahan x The Peter McCormack Show

Jake Hanrahan is an independent journalist, war reporter, and founder of Popular Front, known for his raw, unfiltered coverage of conflicts, crime, and underground movements around the world.

In this episode we discuss conflict, corruption, media manipulation, and the creeping authoritarianism gripping the West. With years of frontline reporting from Ukraine, Syria, Iraq, and beyond, Jake shares his perspective on global conflicts, why the mainstream media is failing us, and how governments use fear and control to shape public perception. We also discuss the reality of modern warfare, the rise of state control, the failure of politicians, and the real consequences of unchecked power.
