Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.

A superb discussion with masterful moderation by Mark. Sci Fi has always had much to teach us and continues to do so. Thanks to all the wonderful panelists, and I'll be donating to @chasemasterson.bsky.social's group, popculturehero.org.
