1:04:19Now PlayingThis morning we bring you some sad news. The iconic Rev. Jesse Jackson has passed away. Don will be joined by his son, Rep. Jonathan Jackson, to remember his legacy, reflect on what he stood for, and honor the decades he spent fighting for justice, civil rights, and political power for the marginalized.
Then we pivot to the media meltdown. Reports that Anderson Cooper is leaving 60 Minutes have sparked major questions about what’s happening inside legacy newsrooms. Add to that the growing influence of Bari Weiss, the soft-glove treatment of MAGA figures, even those tied to the Epstein files, and the fact that CBS reportedly is blocking interviews to avoid angering Donald Trump, and you have to ask, what happened to the backbone of the press? 🍋
