Description
<html><p>Regimes falter when opposition media is strong. But America's legacy media has failed to live up to the dangers of the political environment and the authoritarianism of Trump's administration. We need stronger opposition media, making full-throated defenses of liberalism. But what does that look like? </p><p>I'm joined today by <a href="https://bsky.app/profile/adamgurri.liberalcurrents.com" target="_blank">Adam Gurri</a>, founder and editor-in-chief of <em><a href="https://www.liberalcurrents.com/" target="_blank">Liberal Currents</a></em>, which is currently fundraising to take their indispensable publication to the next level. Adam and I talk about the state of media, what it means to carve out principled opposition, and how stronger opposition media can see us through the coming years and towards a future for liberalism.</p><p><em>Liberal Currents</em> fundraiser: <a href="https://gofund.me/be2b76bf9" target="_blank">https://gofund.me/be2b76bf9</a></p><p><strong>Join the </strong><em><strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/AaronRossPowell" target="_blank">ReImagining Liberty</a></strong></em><strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/AaronRossPowell" target="_blank"> Patreon</a></strong><strong> to get episodes a week early, listen ad-free, and become part of the Discord community.
