Just days after they were both forcibly removed from Biden Secretary of State Antony Blinken's final press conference, independent journalists Sam Husseini & Max Blumenthal joined Bad Faith to discuss their respective strategies for how to make the most out of Blinken's last presser before Trump took power, what the corporate media's reaction means about the current state of journalism, and what they anticipate for the fourth estate under Trump. They go on to have a broader conversation about the ceasefire agreement, the likelihood it will hold, and why it is that lame duck Joe Biden allowed Trump this win when achieving even a temporary ceasefire months ago might have won Democrats the White House.
