Why Kids Can’t Handle Free Speech, Celeb Body Image Cope, and Clickbait Rage, with Bridget Phetasy

Описание: Emily Jashinsky is joined by Bridget Phetasy, Host of “Dumpster Fire” and writer of the “Beyond Parody with Bridget Phetasy” Substack. They start the conversation with a quick discussion of Bridget’s background and how she made a career from Twitter that led to writing for major publications and her own show. They discuss the good and bad of social media, how it can distort reality, and why it’s important to learn how to distinguish real vs fake news. Emily and Bridget then have a conversation about the spectacle that is the Olivia Nuzzi/Ryan Lizza debacle – and if what Lizza is doing really is ‘revenge porn’ as Nuzzi alleges. They also react to a new FIRE survey showing nearly half of U.S. college students believe “words can be violence,” and how colleges are incentivizing victimhood with a discussion on a recent article in “The Atlantic” showing the share of students at selective universities who qualify for ‘disability’ accommodations has grown at a breathtaking pace. Emily and Bridget also discuss the trouble with Hollywood, Ellen DeGeneres’ reported about-face and plans to return to the U.S., Gen Z’s confusion around sex, and the troubling Ozempic craze. Emily rounds out the show with a stunning breakdown of the new “Drop Site” reporting that the UK Prime Minister’s allies ran a secret campaign to harm U.S. journalism outlets with the help of an NBC Unit.
