FactsAreUseless posted:Again going to recommend Selected Shorts and Snap Judgement. Just avoid NPR's news and politics coverage because they have great shows dedicated to arts and culture. NPR's not bad for "what happened today, like, in general," but then again everything gets halted for The President Made A Tweet. I use the NPR One app in the morning to get that five minute Lakshmi Singh thing, but lately I seem to be skipping most other segments until I hit an unskippable commercial, then I just turn it off. I can pinpoint when I started losing the faith, though. A host of All Things Considered did her own segment about how she finally realized that traffic rerouting apps were a problem because they were keeping her from getting to her vacation house in Martha's Vineyard in a timely fashion via her favorite shortcuts. With a Perspective, I'm doctorfrog.

Didn't Serial try to follow one of Adnan's appeals (maybe the last one?) and it immediately got shot down? Serial made the right choice IMO to focus on (basically) poor people going through the justice system in season 3. Not only is it more interesting and shorter in form, the handwringing is more over what a lovely time they have of it whether they're obviously guilty or not, and opens the question about whether some larger sense of justice is being served. But of course they can only publish it for a month and then they're gone for a year. I'm sure they individually have other projects they're working on. Feels like a long time since I've been subjected to a MailChimp ad.

ElGroucho posted:I listened to 2 episodes of season 3 and didn't get poo poo out of it. It's basically a white lady being like, "Wow, did you guys know that the poor are getting hosed by the system??" Hey, it's a potentially useful primer for downwardly mobile citizens. Also give some listeners that good ol' "there but for the grace of God" feeling to get them through their commutes.

Here's an uncritical, and subtly congratulatory reporting of a minor change a social media corporation is thinking about maybe doing to offset the awfulness of their business model, without impacting their profits or growth in the slightest. This is the most one should expect from a corporation, and we won't give voice to alternatives from someone who doesn't work in that industry. We won't mention when this feature is completely removed by a very quiet security update. See you next bullying-related suicide or shooting. Tech: we know you work in it, invest in it, or just kinda feel good about it!

Yeah that perked my ears up. Then they did a story about how they finally called a racist thing racist. It’s news that news is calling things what they are this one time. Maybe it’ll continue.

comedyblissoption posted:*is allergic to the words torture and racist* If the twitter thread is correct, he's also the guy who wouldn't let them call lies, lies, because they couldn't be sure they were intentional lies. I'm hopeful this podcast where he argues with another NPR man about whether they can say racist things are racist, isn't a tepid drink of water. https://www.npr.org/templates/transcript/transcript.php?storyId=742448398

We’re gonna go ahead and dedicate several segments that seriously investigate the right wing allegation that video games have something to do with mass shooting murders rather than quickly identify them as the last minute distractions that they clearly are.
