Will Zohran Mamdani Become the Democrat Party's Trump? | Emily Jashinsky

Americans’ trust in the corporate media has cratered. And with good reason: After decades of deception and distortion—considering its uncritical coverage of the wars in the Middle East, its peddling of the Trump-Russia collusion narrative, its inconsistent reporting on COVID-19, its selective ignorance during the 2020 election, and its efforts to conceal President Biden’s cognitive decline—the corporate press has earned every ounce of the public’s suspicion.

Now, Americans are tuning out the noise and tuning in to new voices to stay informed. UnHerd Washington Correspondent Emily Jashinsky has emerged as one of those voices. She joined “The Signal Sitdown” this week to discuss her new show with Megyn Kelly’s MK Media, “After Party with Emily Jashinsky,” the fallout from President Donald Trump’s “big, beautiful bill,” and whether or not Zohran Mamdani represents the future of the national Democrat Party.

“I'm very weirdly optimistic,” Jashinsky said of the alternative media’s rise. “I feel so strange about this because one of the reasons I got into media is because I've always been obsessed with media and I've always been so pessimistic. But the last, I don't know, year or two, I've started to feel optimistic about media, not because there aren't still very powerful bad actors, not because some of the new actors aren't also bad, but because the demand for transparency from the audience, I think, is pushing us in at least a better direction.”
