Podcast interview: The Fox Effect. Highly recommended

This week's Point of Inquiry podcast features an interview with Ari Rabin-Havt, who co-authored, with David Brock, a new book, The Fox Effect: How Roger Ailes Turned a Network into a Propaganda Machine.

You may know David Brock from Media Matters for America. Rabin-Havt is the Executive Vice President of MMA.

The interview is conducted by Chris Mooney, author of The Republican War on Science, the regular host of this podcast.

I highly recommend that DUers take the time to download and listen to this. It really cuts to the core of what has been going on at Faux News.

It's a very compelling, highly informative interview. They discuss the history of Fox News and speculate about its future. The book is going on my must read list.
