as posted by the channelBlack Innovation vs. Media Spin: Breaking Down the Taylor Lorenz “Dark Money” Drama|Invested Podcast
Isaac Hayes III is back, this time teaming up with TV producer Tamisha Harris and journalist Noah Washington to dive into two explosive stories that pull back the curtain on how Black creators get targeted and disrespected. The crew unpacks Taylor Lorenz’s hot-button “dark money” article, calling out how mainstream media loves to throw around
loaded terms that make Black creators look shady—while conveniently ignoring the massive cash pipelines fueling conservative influencers.
Harris nails the core issue: “We need Black media to break these stories down because mainstream outlets won’t give us the full context. When someone says ‘dark money,’ we have to explain what it really means instead of letting folks think it’s something sinister.”
The episode connects the dots on a bigger, troubling pattern: Black creativity gets borrowed—or straight-up stolen—while the actual innovators get dragged into legal battles just for protecting their work. That’s why platforms like Fanbase matter so much—they give Black voices the mic without the filters, spin, or corporate strings attached.
