142: Dave Breakenridge on media's refusal to say beheading

What made the internet angry this week? Making the best of a bad situation with technical difficulties Dave Breakenridge returns to the show. We salvaged the show which Dale explains in a short intro. As a News Insider Dave explains why some news organizations are unwilling to call the France attack a beheading and have gone for softer language such as “Knifed to death” in their headlines. Dave and Dale talk about the time they both worked at the Calgary Sun. Dave gives the listener behind the scenes account of some of the decisions that go into what information should be put in a newspaper as events unfold. While discussing the Hunter Biden email scandal Dale comes up with a campaign idea to run for politics in the Ukraine. Twitter has banned sharing the article on their platform and we’re not ok with that.
