Zuckerman vs Zuckerberg

Ethan Zuckerman is a professor at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and a scholar of digital media. He and his team work to understand the contemporary digital world and build social media systems that are focused on communities, not on profits.

Please tune in to hear the details of the case and the various ways it could change the social media landscape. It's fascinating!

JD Vance's job is to sane-wash Donald Trump, but he's failing miserably

Salon

Summary

Nutrition label

64% Informative

Sen. JD Vance was selected as Donald Trump's running mate in no small part because of his overrated intellectual chops.

He fashions himself a public intellectual, giving chin-scratching interviews on right-wing podcasts and to Ross Douthat of the New York Times .

Watching interviews suggests his main job is to "translate" Trump 's babble into coherent-sounding talking points.

Julian Zelizer : Donald Trump and Sen. Joe Vance have spread a lie about immigrants in Springfield , Ohio .

He says the truth is that immigrants have made up for a labor shortage.

Zelizer says Vance 's antics continue to backfire on him, but he just keeps talking, assured in his view that Americans will soon fall in love.
